They don't look much like you Bob. Maybe they take after Terri. This is a really great shot. Love the way the trees frame the group. Sharp too.

Fantastic shot! You must have a good eye to notice them, they blend in so well.

Regards!

thank you so much for the kind review. I got close enough to be able to use my 43mm lens.

Jer, we camp in the same stop every year and always get dove in the same nest. One year we had three sets of babies born.

thanks Susan, more like Terri with her beauty, with my looks it scares the dove away.

the nest was at eye height right in our campsite Rupert, it does blend in well as you say and the birds are so quiet and move hardly at all. Hope all is well with you and family.
