I captured this shot at the prairie restoration. The dove was perched on the rail at the viewing platform for the western wetlands section. The raindrops from the previous nights rain were still there and he seemed to want his picture taken as he waited patiently for me to get my camera set as I had just arrived.

I can hear him saying, "this is my best side", so I'll take his word for it. Nice work, Kathy.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

Lovely clarity, & especially good lighting Kathy, but tightly framed, I hope you don't mind my critique.

I do not know about the framing being tight, I see that it is far too tight - the tip of the tail is even protruding ! LOL
I do not mind though:)
