DAY 5 April 15 2011
Feeding time!! This took about 10 - 15 minutes.
Dad checking things out. 10:30 am
Feeding the younger baby.
The young rub their heads and bodies against
the breast of the parent.
This signals the Mom
to regurgitate - vomit - throw up, and the young drink it.
Kinda gross!!
It is made up of large sized grains of food.
It is not very pre-digested.
The parents have to eat quite a lot to feed the young
especially as they get bigger.
Two for one!!
Taking a rest and digesting.
The eyes are opening more and more feathers are showing.
The older baby - he can't seem to get enough!
Dad cleaning up the the dribbles.
Serious eating.
A second pair of doves has hatched out a baby overnight.
Dad on the left and Mom on the right.
There he is.
