I found this nest in our garden today. It's from a Collared Dove. The dove sitting on the nest returned shortly after this picture was taken.
They typically breed close to human habitation wherever food resources are abundant and there are trees for nesting; almost all nests are within a kilometre of inhabited buildings.
The female lays two white eggs in a stick nest, which she incubates during the night and which the male incubates during the day. Incubation lasts between fourteen and eighteen days, with the young fledging fifteen to nineteen days.
Three to four broods per year is common, although up to six broods in a year has been recorded.

Two of my five favorite hikes are seen here.
I'm standing on a bridge over the Virgin River, looking directly at Angels Landing, which is certainly one of the most famous hikes in the world.
My history with Angels Landing goes back to 1975, when my first attempt at reaching the summit ended in failure when I chickened out less than 1/2 mile from the top... I was so scared my legs turned to jelly and I could not continue in either direction for a few minutes. My first completed hike was in 1977, and I've done it four or five times since, most recently in 2007. That, I'm afraid, will remain my final time on this thrilling hike.
See here www.nps.gov/zion/learn/photosmultimedia/angels-landing-eh... to get an idea from the NPS what this hike is like, plus some other nice Zion photos.
An even more rewarding hike for me at this time is Observation Point, which is the high-point in the background to the right of Angels Landing. At the end, you tower 1000' feet above Angels Landing, with superior views both up and down Zion Canyon. Photo 3 in the slide show linked above shows the view from Observation Point. Not quite as death-defying as Angels Landing, but a longer, more varied and less crowded hike that's still quite challenging in spots.
This visit, however, was just a quick day trip to Zion that got me no closer to these trails than this photo.

Two Foden OG lorries at Astle Park, not a great photo but I thought it was worth sharing.
On the left is JVU 332, a 1948 OG4 flatbed in the livery of G.H Donaldson & Sons.
On the right is MAU 840, a 1950 OG tipper in the livery of British Road Services.
This is a composite of the inside of two cathedrals in Barcelona. One is the gothic Cathedral of Barcelona and the other is the post gothic Sagrada Família designed by Antoni Gaudi. The two edifices could not be more different. The only thing they have in common is they are Roman Catholic. Read more on the blog: www.justenoughfocus.com/two-cathedrals/

I'm glad our winters are mild otherwise this would have been a near impossible challenge.lol I wish I had had some other stuff at home, like some roast chicken legs or grapes.....LOL thanks to Ella for lending me her fake bread hahaha I wish the wine glasses had stood out a bit more, but I just couldn't get the light right on them. I also wish I had had a red and white cloth instead of the blue.
