Dove's Nest

Here's a mourning dove nesting in a cherry tree.

This seems a precarious place to put a nest you're going to sit on for two weeks, and then spend another two weeks feeding two nestlings. They must be quiet.

The Cornell Lab website says they are "unbothered by nesting near humans" - I should say so.
