this is awesome you should enter this one into the movement challenge if you havent already this is just amazing

Thanks. I love the calmness and gracefulness of the doves that visit us. We now have some young ones, and they are a delight to watch. So inquisitive.

Love the the contrast of tranquility in the dove to the frenetic sparrows. Nice catch ;)

Thanks. I learn a lot by observing the doves. :O)

Very Cool!

Thanks.

wonderful capture, and this would be great for the motion challenge too, nice shot

I've submitted it to the motion challenge. There are a lot of really nice entries in that.

Great capture! I love the motion. The sparrows may be upset because it looks like that dove has had more than his share of the seed. :P

LOL! The sparrows around here always seem spastic (and easily startled), whereas the doves seem calm and you can almost walk up and touch some of them... almost. :O)
It's possible that there was a squirrel nearby (which would have startled the sparrows, but been ignored by the dove). LOL

This is great! Congrats on your feature!!

What a kind comment. Thanks.

congrats! great shot.

Thx. This was one of those shots that I must say makes me laugh. Those crazy sparrows are so skittish!

Great photo- congrats on being bug fav.

I'm glad you like it. My husband and I are entertained by the antics of the birds in our backyard.
What a surprise to get the feature! I was SO excited, so I had to share with my family and friends. :O)
