Baby Dove Update On The Last Update

Gravdigr · 04-19-2010, 12:45 AM

The picture tells the story...

They've left the nest. They've flown the coop. They're in the wind. They're on the wing. They. Are. Outtahere. Momdigr watched as the first of the two took off. She said it flew across the neighborhood and out of sight. Apparently, they hatch knowing how to fly. She said there were no false starts. Stretched his wings, hopped up on the edge of the planter, looked around, and was gone. The sibling was gone within an hour, leaving no witnesses to its departure.

I guess, in retrospect, that a hanging plant container 4 feet off the ground was a pretty good place to raise a family after all.

You ate 'em, dintcha.

skysidhe · 04-19-2010, 01:46 AM

Wow that was quick! They even cleaned up

Not even a feather to remember them by.

Gravdigr · 04-19-2010, 01:55 AM

I promise, there was no squab served at Chez Gravdigr.

Shawnee123 · 04-19-2010, 08:07 AM

Well, I enjoyed seeing them from their beginnings.

Aww, it's sad they moved on.

As Andy Griffith would say "Don't the trees sound nice and full?"

Gravdigr · 05-06-2010, 01:15 PM

She came back. Go figure.

classicman · 05-06-2010, 02:57 PM

Wow - You sure it the same one?

Gravdigr · 05-06-2010, 03:57 PM

Reasonably sure, head on one end, ass on the other, wings in the middle...

classicman · 05-06-2010, 05:01 PM

Oh, definitely her then!

Her chicks grew pretty fast, maybe they're mutants and those are her grandeggs.

Gravdigr · 05-13-2010, 12:22 PM

What better symbol of peace and love,
Than a newly hatched baby dove.

(Before oohing and ahhing, you should know that my camera gave this pic the filename "100_0666". Devil Dove?)

ETA: Yes, it's alive. Hatched this morning, spotted by Momdigr. Maybe eight hours old in this pic.

classicman · 05-13-2010, 12:27 PM

I, for one, welcome our new devil-dove overlord.

xoxoxoBruce · 05-13-2010, 01:50 PM

I wonder if Mama Dove has killed the greenery in the center, or it didn't want to grow there?

Gravdigr · 05-13-2010, 04:18 PM

Maybe it's hard to grow and flourish with a big, fat, pregnated dove sitting on you all the time?
