I got a close up of this bird this morning. Found her sitting on the nest under our porch. I didn't disturb her though. Maybe someone can tell me what kind of bird this is.
Welcome to my blog where I try to post a photo taken somewhere in or around Bellefonte, PA each day or close to it. I also post various meme's here such as (ABC Wed., Skywatch Fri., Photo Meme's, Camera Critters, Weekend Mailbox) that I participate in each week, which are also focused in or around my town.

WOW! I love the clarity of your photo.
It doesn't look like a pigeon, which was what I had in mind when I first saw the photo.
maybe a tutle dove ? brilliant shot though
I was thinking in the lines of a dove too. But, I'm not up on birds too much. I just know I like to look at them.
The name is "Mourning Dove" and usually uses the leftover nests of others. It is a miserable nest builder and most eggs fall out of the nest before they hatch. It gets its name from the male's mournful cry or coo that sounds almost identical to a woman's wail for a dead child. They are abundant in spite of everything I have said about them.
It's very pretty whatever it is!! I'm no bird expert so I am afraid I can't offer you any help but thank you for sharing the photo! :o)
You really got up close and personal ;-)Nice job!
Looks like a dove, but I would check with Abraham in Brookville OH.
Great shot! Don't think I've ever seen a bird like that. She looks very dedicated.
Well that looks kind of familiar. ;) Looks a lot like the birds i posted a picture of today, mourning doves as Abraham said.
The sound of mourning doves is very distinctive, and I find it rather soothing. Great capture.
Such big eyes!...all the better to see you with ;)
In my opinion, it's a turtledove (une tourterelle, in French) and its "rouw-rouuw" gets on my nerves at 6 am every morning!
