I'm Going to be a Daddy ...

17 years ago

No no, no! We've been spayed and neutered. But a dove is nesting in the greenhouse. I still had a few small plants (less than 20) in the back of the greenhouse so Saturday I began to remove them. One empty pot sat on the back shelf. I moved my hand to pick it up and there was a dove nesting in it. I was so close I could have grabbed her. I left her alone and carried out the few remaining things. After about the third trip she flew out. I checked the nest and there weren't any eggs so I pulled out the straw thinking she would not come back. A few hours later I went back into the greenhouse for a hand digger and she had rebuilt the nest. She flew out again and I put the pot on the floor but never looked in. Later, she was nesting on the empty shelf. When I went back inside I noticed an egg in the pot on the floor. When she flew out again, I put the pot back on the shelf. She is sitting on the egg in the pot this morning.
