Stock Dove (Forest of Dean)

It was a formidable day, nice sunshine leading to nice birds. The Stock Dove is one of them, it is a little bit scared of humans. But if you are able to cover yourself, it will not see you, ha ha ha.

  3. Bob, jeden Morgen werde ich wieder von einer Taube geweckt.
    Es ist keine Hohltaube sondern bei mir eine Ringeltaube.
    Liebe Grüße

  9. Lovely photos again Bob. I have one visit the garden every now and then and you are quite right, it is very flighty and timid.
