It's good to see the doves have stood their ground. ;)
I have an attached carport on this house that has 3 open sides. There is a pair of doves that tries to nest somewhere under it every year. I also try to catch them before they lay because of the mess on the car, but a time or two they beat me to it. They are just common gray doves here. I'm sure they probably have some other real type name, but we just call them Mournng Doves, which some folks interpret as Morning Doves, but their sound is like they are booo hoooing.
It is great to have birds nesting close to us...as long as it's on our terms. The pigeons are the worst for me as they produce so much mess - I should probably collect it as fertiliser for the garden.
