Mumma and her babies

Spotted dove and two chicks.
This is a long tailed pigeon introduced
into Australia in the 1800s.
Good eating!!
We are enjoying watching this little family battle life's trials and flourishing in a bush in our garden.

So nice to have the opportunity to watch them, Elaine. I'm sure we will be seeing them develop through your capable
camera work!
