I went out this morning and look what I found. He had not figured out how to start it yet, but I could see he was thinking hard about it.

You have a little time to give him a good upbringing and teach him right from wrong. He's gonna have a problem reaching the pedals anyway.

The bird might be guarding the nest it built up under the hood!

Must have been worse over in Cayuga County. Three inches here early this morning and it is already down to an inch. I still have not heard about areas such as Hornell and Jamestown yet. I'll turn on the news here shortly.

We didn't get any snow that I saw, though it was in the forecast as a possibility.

Good pics! Surprised he sat there while you took the pics. Looks like a young bird, though.

Yes, it's a young mourning dove. They are nice, but not Einstein by any means. The close up picture I zoomed in, so I was never closer than 3 feet or so.

Are you sure he wasn't looking to buy? I'm sure that if you'd have made him a price, he'd have put a "deposit" down on the tractor...

Did not think they would have young yet, I've had a few of those, ones I've rescued, one was really bad off, could not even stand, almost got him flying again, but he was more content roosting on a loop of extension cord and overlooking the proceedings in the man cave/garage, he would jump onto your finger whenever you wanted to take him out, never did figure out what happened, last one I had must have got lost, in about a week, after being fed well he could fly, off he went. I'd have to find the pics in my directory,was awhile ago. The other night a pair of ducks drake and hen were hanging out in my driveway, during the rain, never could figure that one out.

Based on the evidence I would say "Here Kitty Kitty"
At least he had not left a calling card (yet)

Is that the thief or the stool "pigeon" who tipped you off?

Hey, hey, watch your mouth! Do you realize it's April? Almost May! What's all this talk about snow? If you just whistle and look away, it's not really there, is it? Just keep whistling and looking away!

I have lost one too the last month. Every time I take my 22 month old daughter to the pole barn to "help" me feed calves she hugs the front tire on my 6700 and says "my tracker". I always ask her "if that one is your's where's daddy's?" She will run over to the 960 and pat the back tire and say "daddy's tacker."

We have had a pair of Doves around our house in town for 32 years - Not the same pair, but of the same stock. Back every year.
