The Birds next door!

 It's raining today Sunday but it's only a little rain which I declare is finished now.   Whilst eating Sunday's lunch out the window I noticed 2 birds sitting on the next door's children's playhouse, so I ventured outside with the camera and from underneath the eaves of our house I took these few shots - actually it was 26 photos but I'm rather happy with what I captured seeing as I wasn't using my tripod!

Monday week we are off on over a months holiday down south of the Island for Christmas, New Year and beyond.  I trust there will be new photos of places, things and objects I will bring back with me to show you.

UPDATE ON DOVES
Those doves are Spotted Doves, 
Scientific Name: Streptopelia chinesis
The Spotted Dove is Native to Eastern Australia. Introduced into Australia mid 1800's to the early 1900's.
