We had quite the thunderstorm last night and these poor little morning doves got blown out of their nest before they got their wings. If this little guy hadn't have moved, I would never have seen him.

The little guy is up in the tree and flying, sort of. It's really windy today so he's mostly just hunkerin' down but definitely off the ground and testing out those little wings. Not sure why, but call me JJ.
