4Doves

you look after them well ;0)

Jacque ~
Collared Doves seem to have disappeared from my garden now that winter is here.
I can only guess that neighbours elsewhere are feeding them well.
How many Collared Doves do you have visiting your garden in December? This four, or more ?

O TT i get 8 Doves come 2my garden now! of which 2 are still young as their Beaks are still large enough 2feed from an adult Dove! I make sure they all get enough food every day &im out there@730am every morning feeding them&some times again3pm just incase it needs topping up :)

What do your doves like eating ?
Everything ?

~anything up to twelve~ they love peanuts!

OMG u get 12 Arlene ! Phew i thought i had lots :) Yeah mine Eat Any thing really TT But Like the Corn seed mix best :)

Our collared doves also like the corn mix best...lovely photo

They are obviously happy Jacque Lovely photo

I will have to try to get a picture of our doves on the electric lines beside my house. Sometimes there are 15 or 20 all lined up in a row and I don't feed them.....my cats would have a hey day if I did....Over the years, the doves used to get into the attic area of this building, When I had the ceiling removed upstairs, there was bird poop 6 inches deep. The guy I hired had to wear a mask. I sealed up their point of entry but they still hang around here in droves...I really don't know why...

Nice picture Jacque, until now I am trying my best to take a picture of a bird but I can't seem to as they fly off too soon!
