Relaxing before the clamor
Just the other day I noticed a spotted dove building a nest outside my kitchen window.
This morning I see the new soon to be mum and dad resting and relaxing in the beautiful spring morning.
Soaking up the sun and taking it easy. Perhaps they know that soon it will be chirping hungry mouths and not a spare moment.
