Here are the dove nests:

Well that is sad... a condo rule or subdivision law?

The fluff certainly would bring birds, and they do love the bird baths. We have two baths, one for big birds and one for little ones. The little one attracts chickadees and the finches mostly and is right outside our screened porch so we can watch easily.

The other is a large shallow cement one that was grandfather's, and is out in the yard about 1/2 way under a little hawthorn tree. That one the robins love, and the grackles. And the doves.
The doves were in it all winter whenever the temps allowed.

The Google page shows many creative dove nesting sites. Some in potted plants and many down the page in the hanging mossy type planters.

And this morning I have another female goldfinch back at the fluff. We had a deluge rain 2 days ago and maybe her nest got wet? The fluff has just dried enough here for her to take again.
