Dovecam 2023

This is a live stream of the nest of two common ground doves.  The nest was built between February 6th and February 10th, 2023.  On February 10th at 6:00pm, the first egg was laid.  We noticed the second egg the morning of February 12th, so the best guess is that it was laid the evening of February 11th.  Hatching should occur between February 20th and February 22nd. 

The pair take turns sitting on the nest.  The bird with more black on its beak is the female.  The male's beak is almost entirely orange.
