Before I started to prepare dinner, I checked on the nest. A parent was still sitting on the nest, but the second (and last) egg was visible. A little later I saw through the window the second parent arrive and went out to have a look... The egg was gone and there were 2 nesting now! The other parent was sitting about a meter away and watching them. I had them both in the same photo, but cropped it a bit and cut a little out where the grey line was, otherwise the picture was not very interesting and just a lot of leaves...
A little later the first parent (I'm not sure if it is mom or dad) was on the nest and the nestlings were not visible any more.
@sangwann Hi Dione. Thank you for your comments. It is great fun following the birds. I also Googled a lot. They are Laughing Doves and they normally have 2 eggs/babies. Also here, although it looks like there are more because the first is already a little bigger. In the coming days I hope to get a clearer picture of them.
And it is actually a lime tree. I have been making lemonade daily!
