Strolling Dove, Watchful Swallow

Many birds have found ways to deal with human environments. Mourning doves seem to thrive around our homes and gardens.


A tree swallow appeared to be monitoring the handicapped parking space. I don’t know what it does if somebody breaks the rule.

  4. For those who illegally park in spaces reserved for the handicapped, I hope the swallow rounds up all his avian clan and they poop all over the vehicle. I am putting out a call for gulls to join in.

  5. Hello,
    I love seeing both the doves and swallows. The doves are very shy here. Take care, have a great day!

  7. Very cute captures! I still get one or two mourning birds out back, even though I stopped feeding them before my family arrived (as you say, plenty of food out in nature now). I think they like to rest here.
