The Eurasian collared dove returned for breakfast around 7:30 this morning
and is now here eating dinner for which it came at 5 P.M . here in the
Charlotte Park section of West Nashville. Oops, it was just "spooked" for the
second
time and flew into the hackberry tree. It left a couple of minutes after
its evening arrival, but came back. I've sure enjoyed seeing it for the past
two days and wonder if it is going to be a "keeper."
The hummingbirds have been filling up all day, and their little bellies are
obviously full and sticking out like "beer guts." Maybe they know the rain
is coming and are planning to fly out tonight ahead of the front. I will sure
miss them when they have all migrated. I've read several reports of
ruby-throats still being seen up north, so, hopefully, there are more to travel
through here.
Happy birding,
