My Bedroom Window Box

View From My Window

Rocklin California I have had two window boxes for 15 years and while I have been feeding birds in my backyard for a long time never expected THIS.

I had noticed doves fluttering around but that is not uncommon in the spring. However, few days ago I walked out the back door and just as I passed my window box one took off like an explosion and i glanced to the side and saw a little white egg sitting in the succulents.

Since then I have kept things quiet with no light on after dark and the window shade drawn so even my computer does not bother the nesting.

It is a perfect spot under the eave and out of the rain that fell for a few days after she started. Also I have kept cats out since I started feeding birds.
