Nicky's Collared Dove

A friend has a collared dove which has been trying to nest in her palm tree near the house.   All through the summer eggs have been laid which have fallen through the holes in the bottom of the nest, but generally there has been a bird in residence.

For the past two weeks one bird appears to have decided not to move at all.   Continual residence without any apparent assistance or food supplies from another bird.
