The Mourning Dove that has been nesting outside our window had her babies last night -- it looks like two little ones. They finally poked their head out about 5:30 pm and mommy started feed them shortly after that. It's exciting to have a new family in the neighborhood. They look amazingly large. No wonder mom took so long to hatch them.
A shot of mom just before the babies came out is on my other blog, PixelEyed.

What a special moment you've captured here, much like Sullivan's chaos--fleeting and worthy. Thanks.
Oh my, that is so sweet. I'm so glad that you shared the happy event with us, too.
Steve ~~ that is the most amazing photo. The color, the texture in the tree and nest, and the softness of the Dove ~~
Just wonderful :)
She looks very proud to me.
Oh, Steve! What a lovely shot to start my morning! How on earth did you get it?
How exciting to be able to capture the proud mama and babies. Terrific shot.
You should export these babies to some countries where there are more hawks than doves !
