| as i've mentioned before Apollo and NewMissus own the balcony - but we have more than one  on the west side of the flat our living room is all window at one end and looks out onto another balcony recently we started putting food out there and after many weeks the visitors arrived first it was blue tits and sparrows, then a robin, sometimes great tits, and the odd sighting of dunnock, wren, magpie... and a woodpigeon, difficult to photograph as it/they are very wary, not sure how many visit we only ever see one up here but plenty are about   and.... the collared doves, only one visits at a time now so i guess they're nesting nearby  the dove will make eye contact and is quite comfortable being watched as long as there are no sudden noises/movements sunbathing   i hope to grab some more pics now the light is better and we might have the door open some days | |

| Lovely, lovely pictures, Rattyfied!  Is that Apollo in the flower pot? What a looker!  I couldn't believe how relaxed those collared doves look, even sunbathing nearby! Precious! Oh by the way, my daughter LOVES your avatar. She said, 'I want to pet that cutie' and started petting the screen...  | |

| Love the photos, rattyfied.  Thank you for sharing them with us. And now having a 'west side story' to follow and be entertained with is wonderful.   Please do capture more activity on camera. We'd love to see updates. The doves are absolutely stunning.  | |
