Year 4 Day 88

Yesterday, I was chatting with my oldest son when we heard a thud against the sliding glass door. We looked up to see 3 or 4 doves fly away. Not sure what they were doing but they were obviously not paying attention because one flew right into the glass. It was surreal to see them all fly away because of the sound of the impact but it was even more amazing to see what has been left behind.

(I taped black poster board on the inside of the door, went outside and held up another to reduce the glare so it would be easier to see.)
really cool. hope the bird is alright.

@shaunasauna7 - Me, too. I kept checking outside to see if I saw any in distress and didn't see any signs. He hit hard. I felt horrible... I really love my doves. Having grown up rarely seeing them, they have always fascinated me. I find it amazing that I have so many right in my backyard now. That being said, I grew up constantly seeing squirrels, throwing nuts to them, etc. Where I live, there aren't any and I miss them. It's funny to hear my kids make such a big deal when they see one.

Wonderful image and capture! I hope the fact that all the birds flew away means that they were all ok.

I often get this, they see the reflections of the trees in my back yard and wham straight into the sliding glass door.

Who knew two of us would photograph the same thing! I forgot to look, but my tags might be about the same, too! http://365project.org/Weezilou/album-excess/2014-02-06
