[indent]In the spring we have doves nesting in my brother's ash tray placed on the eve beam of the balcony. He says they have been nesting in the corner for several years. Last year they had one off spring. This year there were two of them. But theyboth disappeared one day. I thought the parents had gotten them to leave the nest. Butthe parents would come looking around like they had misplaced them every day for a couple of weeks. Then a couple of tiems a crow would also fly under the porch and look up at the nest while it was holding place in mid air.
