Collared dove by rosiekind

Collared dove

This is actually a filler from a few days ago as it is pouring with rain here. I have been digging over the vegetable patch now that all the potatoes have been lifted and so haven't had much time to go walking. However, I did take a quick walk along Wood Lane but didn't get anything very interesting. This collared dove was taken up Wood Lane. I think they have pretty little faces and I just liked the texture of the tree she was sitting in.

I was absolutely amazed and so pleased to have 3 pics on PP. Thank you all so much for taking the time to look, comment and Fav my pics. It is really so much appreciated.
Looks great with the background

Aww so lovely. I have a very young collared dove in my care at the moment after what looks like a broken wing. Very tricky to know what to do for the best when this happens

@lucypics Oh Lucy that's a shame and I agree it is difficult to know what to do. Do you think it will heal by itself?

@rosiekind I just don't know. I once kept a pigeon with a broken wing for several months before I realised it was not fair nor kind and took it to the vet! This baby is quite strong and moves both wings. I am hoping with time the wing might work again. It is in an enclosed area where it's mum can get to. I have been feeding it porridge oats and putting it in a little coop at night. Blimey I am such a softie!! Off now to put it away,
