20 beans of wisdom to “love thursday: love birds”

   They look pretty serious as they stand guard over the eggs.

   Actually this photo was taken pre-eggs, but they definitely take their jobs seriously, yes

2. Giulia on 17 Apr 2008 at 8:56 am #

   Yes, they DO look serious! But, I’m sure word got out throughout the animal kingdom and they know you are their Snow White!

   Well birds don’t often *look* really jovial in general, do they? I need to get me some darker hair to be Snow White…I do have a rather pale complexion though

   Aw! Aren’t they the sweetest! I bet their babies will be adorable little things!

   How sweet…..but, how do know when the chicks are *due*?

   The eggs hatch 14-18 days after incubation starts

   Cute pigeons!

   Thanks, although I like to call them doves

   Very cool! And they way they are standing, they look like an upside down heart!

   Yeah, I asked if they could stand like that for Love Thursday…aren’t they wonderful?! Seriously I do love how they’re standing

   Great shot & congrats on the expected hatchlings! Happy Love Thursday

   Thanks O, and thanks for stopping by

    They are perfect for Love Thurs. and very beautiful. I used to live in Chicago and for 14 years had, presumably, the same two Mourning Doves perched on my back deck railing.
    Thanks for sharing!

    What a treat you had with those doves!

18. bonggamom on 18 Apr 2008 at 9:10 pm #

    Very pretty birds! Are they yours? And which is the male/female?

    bonggamom’s last blog post..Time to Feast!

    Yes they’re ours, and the (pretty pretty) white one is female

19. Sara on 18 Apr 2008 at 10:03 pm #

    Oh, how sweet!

    Baby pigeons and doves are very cute. Enjoy.

    I’m nervous for any birth, Sara, so I’m just hoping all goes well

    It’s so funny… growing up in NYC, I hate pigeons with a passion, and yet I LOVE mourning doves, etc. Romeo and Giulietta are just lovely.

    jen of a2eatwrite’s last blog post..Singular Saturday: With the Advent of Spring comes…

    I’m not too fond of pigeons either, but these are just too cute
