Who says you can't take pictures of birds with a phone?
This fellow (I assume he's the male) came right over to me and and perched there motionless for quite a while, checking me out. So I cooed to him in what I hope was a friendly tone. This is the first year I've had doves in the yard so I don't know their habits. There are lots of robins around, but no nests within view.
I'm very tempted to buy image-stabilized birding binoculars, or an IS monocular (is there such a thing?), but more expenses I do not need.

Roger Bradbury: "I dunno why (and no criticism implied), but this bird photo has a 'Far Side' feel about it. Maybe the caption is, 'After a night on the tiles, Orville woke up in the gutter.'"
