COLLARED DOVE CHICK

This very young, not fledged yet, Collared Dove is sat on its nest in an Ivy covered tree in the garden. It appears unbothered by me walking past, watching it, or taking photographs.
Rather bizarrely a Blackbird has also built a nest there, about 12 inches away in that dark area to the chicks right.
The busy Blackbird carrying beakfuls of wriggly worms has to keep going right past the Collared Dove to reach its own nest !
Wow... the duck is nicely tucked into the foliage. Interesting story Mark... I can't believe the Blackbird nest is so close. Fav
