Guest Bubbleduck Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Went out today hoping to get some more doves for another one of Mike's fabulous cookouts but got this lot instead. Got the first one and thought I'd wedge it back up the tree. Its mates soon came down for a closer look, all of them young ones. Seems like the dead one put the doves off as I only got one the whole time it was up there. Quote Link to post
