I came home from hanging with Red to find that a lovely dove with beautiful aqua eyeliner has made a nest in the hanging basket by my back door. She sat still and quiet as I opened the door to come in the house, simply looking at me from one calm eye as I snapped a picture or twelve. One luminous egg underneath her as she shifted to better see me through the screen. Now what do I do? I have students coming and going through that door all day... any advice anyone? Can I move the basket if I don't touch the nest? Maybe to a planter hook down to the side of the porch? Oy vey.
UPDATE: Well, she's here to stay, folks. I can't move her basket and she seems utterly unperturbed by the comings and goings of our back porch. The Muse has named her Bella, and we have immense amounts of fun just looking out the screen door at her perched on her little nest.
