Until then, I refer you back to a sunny day last week in which I figured I'd just wander around the garden and see who was about. Next door's Polish labrador puppy, a boisterous golden character called "Falco" was absent, which explains why I was able to get some nice shots of a collared dove doing its hair in the holly tree.
It did notice I was observing it, so the dove observed me quizzically for a few minutes before resuming its coiffuring efforts.
Eventually it was finished, and allowed me to have a look at its nice smooth plumage.
I had other observers as well. Not content with owning a labrador, I noticed that there are other curtain twitchers in the Polish household.
Hoping for good light and pretty birds tomorrow.
Preening .. an important daily activity nicely captured Simon.
ReplyDeleteLovely captures.
ReplyDeleteJohn.
Poor parrots want to go out and play with the dove. Nice shots, though.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of the dove. The parrots are so colourful. I hope they are able to fly around indoors.
ReplyDeleteLove those two parrots peeping through the window!
ReplyDeleteWas wondering if they were parrots or lovebirds. Ah well, they are very pretty!
ReplyDeleteNice photos of the collared dove preening and the parrots/lovebirds look very cute :)
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you so much for dropping by, everybody! Forgive my manners.
