Laughing dove babies

Spilopelia senegalensis

Notes:

This series shows two lovely baby birdies belonging to a new mommy bird (first photo). The nest she built for her two babies was very small and not very well constructed - we could see straight though the nest from beneath. So we attached a grate beneath the nest so that the babies didn't become doggie food for our gorgeous pooches. They've all flown away from the nest now.
