14th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Mourning Dove Family
A pair of mourning doves built a nest above the light fixture above the backdoor of my condo. After several weeks, a pair of baby mourning doves hatched. I'm thankful that they felt safe enough to start a family above my door. They abandoned the nest after a few weeks.
