Every year the mourning doves come to claim my mothers planter on our backyard deck to make a nest. They even have some shelter overhead to protect themselves from rain and sun.
This year they took about 4 days to prepare their nest before the mother started staying full time.
They are all quite chill with us on the deck and will usually watch us for a bit until they relax. I'm sure my dad will slowly work up to being able to water the plants without the doves flying away but it's still too soon right now.
Looking forward to seeing the babies :)
