Lovely series David & how nice she is so comfortable around you!

This one is a friendly dove, and I believe she recognizes me. She's been around for several days and we've made strong eye contact, which doesn't seem to phase her. I was only about 3 feet away when I was taking this picture.

Cool. When you click the pictures fast together it seems like you can see the movement.
