We discovered this nest up in one of our trees. It took a picnic table and a ladder to get high enough to get some of the shots but it was worth it.
This story has an unfortunate ending, however. We have a cat that has a taste for all things bird. We think she got one of the doves and both eggs. The good news is that doves nest three or four times a year and often come back to the same place. Next time, I will put up some chicken-wire to keep the cat away.
