Oh dear...
I guess I won't be able to use my front deck for a while. When I went outside yesterday, one of the local doves leaped from the box-shaped light fixture where a robin built a nest a couple of years ago, and fled to a nearby tree all startled and fluffed. I went out this morning, and realized she has decided to make use of the nest: there are two eggs in it. I do hope I haven't scared her away for good! From now on, the deck is hers.
