Collared Dove

Today has not been a good day. Apart from the poor light conditions, I've been feeling really under the weather - not like me at all, so after a short outing on the trail of fungi with some friends, I just wanted to get home to a nice cup of tea and a sit down, and yes, a nap. I had taken this picture of a collared dove in the morning before leaving. Like yesterday's bird, they have not been as regular visitors to the garden as over the harsher days. I still have a few garden bankers left - I admit, it's getting hard. But I'm not one to give up!
