Collared Dove



As the weather was very good i decided to go out with camera on the usuall route through the lanes. Actually thought i may see something. Was not until the last part of the walk that i actually did. A young collared dove must have fallen out of the nest and was under a big fir tree.

Could hear a lot of cooing, so mum must have been in the vicinity keeping an eye on it, and no doubt feeding it as well. The area is quite remote and the young bird would be quite safe. I dont think any intervention from me, although with very good intentions would have been appropriate.
