Young Collared Dove

When I took this photo at 14:46 the bird made no effort to move.
At supper time I looked down the garden and it was still in the same place.
I picked it off the fence and put it in the little bird feeding house with some food and water.
At least it will have a little shelter in there overnight.
I hope it will have flown by morning.

Frozen with fear, maybe? Lucky for the the dove that it had you to help it. Lovely close-up shot, btw.

OH so cute! I've never seen a young dove before.
