The pictures you are looking at are a Dove’s nest in our neighbor’s tree.

Apparently this dove comes back every year and lays her eggs in the same nest and diligently tends those eggs until they have hatched and left the nest.  The interesting thing is that she has built her nest in the perfect spot in the tree but is rather low.  She is probably about 6’ above the ground and right in front of the neighbor’s front door.  I had Lynda Ann take the pictures.  Annie was quite close to the mother but she didn’t stir or make any noise.  She apparently is used to people passing by her nest on a daily basis.  I wish I had known about this tiny miracle of nature when Jordyn Lyn, Lexi and Peyton were here.  It would have been fun to show them.  They will have to help me remember to show them next year when they come.
