Dove love.

Why do doves choose the most precarious of places to mate. A pair have just fallen off my rotary drier. There's a garage roof a few feet away! ww

Funny you should say that I have just come in from the garden and I heard a lot of fluttering wings, two doves were flying at each other then one tried it on whilst perched on the end of the ariel.they both tottered off then flew to the next ariel and tried again

Re: Dove love.

Rotary drier? Thats a new one on me. I saw a seagull giving his mate a piggy back on a chimney at the weekend.

Ha Ha, like it, that must of been funny to see. I was watching some pigeons at it yesterday and I was thinking, oh no not more of them, it was quite amusing to watch though.

Re: Dove love.

It's what it's all about this time of year. New life and the process of making it. Animals and birds just aren't discreet. ww
