Take the hand of another and sing for the wings of a dove!

Hey! If Peter Warren can slip in numerous song quotes and links to Youtube videos, then so can bloody I 🙂

Madness I tell you!

I had the pleasure of watching this collared Dove from my computer window all morning. It is obviously building a nest in a neighbour’s Leylandii. It didn’t care a jot if I was watching it prance around the trees looking for twigs. It did get rather confused by a bit of bonsai wire that resulted in a tug of war for a few minutes 😉

Walk in the woods Giant Bird!

Leave the apples alone!

Twinkle in the eye

Oooh! Shiny twig

Tug,tug,tug,tug….

Ah feck that

this one will do 🙂

Interesting fact, growing up and having a love for bird watching, I never saw these Collared Doves. They started to spread into Europe from Asia and were first sighted in the UK in the 50’s and now have a extensive population in urban areas.
