Roosting


Roosting, originally uploaded by lnitsche.

I really do love to watch the birds as they fly in and out of my back yard and feed at the our feeder. If you watch long enough, you can see how their activity changes depending upon the time of day and the weather.
These doves always come in a flock, spending much of their time in the nearby ash tree roosting. I think they present such a wonderful sense of community with the flock swooping down upon the feeder and then with a sudden movement, all retreating to the high branches of safety.
