Baby dove hatches..

We have had two doves for three years now, (Jack and Lily) this morning their eighth baby hatched. This has been such an amazing thing to witness. Jack and Lily are amazing parents, they both take such great care of the babies by feeding and keeping them warm. The other seven babies were born in Oregon, so this is the first one born in Idaho. A friend of Pat's wants two doves so this will be his first one. The kids are so happy. Jack and Lily have no problem with all of us looking all the time, they are very content. Here are a few pics. The baby is about the size of a quarter.
