    Not sure about doves, but we have a lot of birds that will return to the same territory. And the kids will come back too.  Marsha had this problem and maybe she can speak to it?

    Concerns for @SusanNorton.  Hope she can make contact to let us know she is ok.  Tropical Ida is not being kind to Louisiana or Mississippi.  And it's path continues NorthEast.

    ....I looked around a bit, and found that they do return to the same nesting locations yearly if they have been successful and feel safe(my apologies for flubbing the earlier comment)....plus, they can lay eggs up to 5 times in a season, so Kurb, ya might wanna move the flower pot....

    I had posted yesterday and heard back from her today on FB. She and family were in Mississippi to wait out the storm. Everybody ok but very worried that their homes won't be there when they are able to go back.

    They've made a nest the past 2 springs in the tree outside my balcony in AZ. I'm pretty sure they would have used the same nest but I had seen other birds taking pieces of it away earlier in the season, presumably to make their own nests elsewhere. The doves picked a branch a little higher but same tree. No way to know if it was the same pair of doves, though. Apparently mourning doves are protected in the area and nests cannot be moved no matter where they are until the chicks have fledged and abandoned it. The yoga instructor told me a friend of her husband found a nest in (on? maybe it was a pickup) his vehicle (he'd left it over the weekend at his workplace) and he had to leave it there so couldn't use his car for the duration because of that. I've been able to see the chicks in the nests but haven't been there at the right time to see them take their first flights. Would love to see that sometime but don't think it's worth hanging around in the heat for it.

    Oh, right. I had my mind focused on doves. The ones in Maine that keep nesting in my screen house are phoebes. I'm hoping the screens stay intact over the winter so I won't have them visiting next year. I've taken the nest down but did that last year, too, and they found a way in to build another one. Had to wait for their second brood to fledge before I could use the screenhouse which was early July. I was not a happy camper about that.

    Definitely a pigeon, not a dove, or at least what we call a pigeon here. :)

    They're both in the same family so not a difference as far as that is concerned but I think most Americans think of the brown ones when they think of a dove. :)

    Well, i'm no birdexpert but considering there are so many different species of doves/pigeons all around the world it would be more surprising if they looked the same i think.

    I've never seen a pigeon this pretty so I didn't think we had any but Scott says he has. I've only seen gray ones, never any with pretty green on them!

    Our doves are usually white, but your bird looks just like our pigeons do @Kurben ... she is beautiful, I can't wait to see her babies, this is so exciting... thank you for sharing them with us. 😍
