I really rather like these doves of yours Wader and you've a lovely picture of this guy!

Yes, sometimes zooming in a little too much can knock of the focusing a bit, or possibly increase the camera shake. It's often better to back off the zoom a little.
 
A very common bird here too but they can make for a beautiful photo subject. Nice capture here, tfs!
 
Thank you all... I love to share and it is nice to rcv feedback. You are very welcoming bunch of folks!
