Whatever are you feeding those birds?  Ours were well satisfied with one baby  :thinking:

I think the predation rate must be very high with newly-fledged collared doves.  I regularly have to go and shepherd "ours" from the middle of the lane.  We don't have cats but the buzzards are very interested in them.
