I have had three weeks clearing twigs under my satellite dish on a South facing gable end on my bungalow. In all I have tidied up three carrier bags of twigs etc as the Collared doves could not get them to secure in order to nest. At last they have been successful in making a firm platform and have built - for Collared doves - a very large structure. They are now sitting on their clutch and their determined efforts have been rewarded. Nothing out of the ordinary I suppose but their continuous perseverence has been enlightening.
