The Eurasian collared dove - we call it 'Türkentaube", literally translated into "Turks' dove", is one of my favourite birds in our neigbourhood. Why ever: I can perfectly imitate the call / hoot of that bird, so whenever I imitate their calls, they fly in my direction and answer me. Obviously they assume I'm a kind of intruder of the same species in their home range. ;-) Have a great weekend, Bob, Uwe.
I probably already mentioned this, so I am sorry if I am repeating myself, but I SO love these birds. My very favorites for sure, and these images of them are just beautiful, Bob. Have a fantastic weekend!!
It looks like a judge with that watchful look in it's eye! It's good that you can photograph birds from inside when the weather isn't good enough to be out.
very cute shots!
