Photographic Scavenger Hunt - linking up to Ramblings of a Square Peg in a Round Hole.
I'm no photographer but I never go anywhere without my little camera. She's an Olympus digital baby camera and does a good job for the very amateur Miss Snap Happy. So drum roll please ~ we have here view from my kitchen windows taken on a very cold, wet and windy day.
Below is a bougainvillea plant not far off flowering and home to a pair of spotted doves whom I call Romeo and Juliet.
Yes, the sun did shine randomly throughout the day when I took these photos and this pool is very popular during summer.
Here's the happy couple enjoying some special time in the sun, they are always snuggling up to each other beside the pool when the sun comes out. They've been living here for two seasons now but I'm yet to see any off-spring.
Thanks Deb for hosting this fantastic photo challenge, see you next week.

Chris, How lovely, I love the doves. Thanks so much for joining in the fun.
ReplyDeleteI love the doves too! And great names by the way :O) Thanks for the smile!
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, give my love to Romeo and Juliet (my age means I immediately think of the Dire Straits song as opposed to dear old Will). And love to the empathy monster as well...looking forward to seeing what we all come up with next week!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty pictures. And I just love doves..especially their cooing. They are so shy though...I can never get their picture...they kind of run away and then laboriously take off in the air a bit up to a tree. When I was little, my grandma told me that if you see a dove, it means someone is going to die. (!) I hope she meant white doves..she didn't specify, because i see gray doves all the time :)
ReplyDeletelove,andrea
What a beautiful view. Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the dove's names too!
Thanks Chris! Each time I bake, though, I gain a pound! I know I have to quit baking, until I stabilize that! love,andrea
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, I'm joining in Deb's scavenger hunt too. Just posted my first photograph. I love the view from your kitchen window. Pool looks very welcoming for summer days. I'll now take the opportunity to check out your blog. Jean.
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, you have a lovely view from your kitchen window. We too are having fun watching the courtship of our Romeo and Juliet doves in our backyard each day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris, you helped me feel better! love,andrea
ReplyDeleteI'm sad to say farewell! I am leaving blogland. I just want to go back to a simpler life for my mind when I didn't go on the computer!
ReplyDeleteI cherish your friendship and admire your work. I've quit blogging two other times, so if I come back, I will stop in and let you know.
love,andrea
