Collared Dove sitting on 2 eggs (1 Viewer)

Hi all,

More news on Collared Dove, she has 2 white eggs in the nest. :king:
I managed to have a quick look whilst she was off the nest yesterday evening.

More Baby doves to come and this time the weather will be more milder, so both eggs stand a very good chance of hatching. o

Not seen the original baby dove as yet, maybe Mr Dove is taking care of it?
I read that they can have up to 6 broods a year? That could mean 12 babies a year?
Oh goodness, a garden full of doves! :'D

Best Wishes,

Dale :t:

Hi Dale,

Crikey they don't hang about long do they! I've heard they never stop and am starting to believe it as yours are getting to be proof!! Fingers crossed.
