Dolly the Dove


We have had a pet Dove, Dolly, ever since we moved in. She lays her eggs(2) and sits on them for about 2-3 weeks and then all of the sudden there are two cute little baby doves. Every time Dolly leaves with her new babies she always comes back a few days later to lay more eggs. "Doves are extremely prolific and can lay eggs every three to four weeks." She has been back 4 times now and has had 6 baby birds born! Two more are on there way. Every time we step foot outside Emma starts calling for Dolly and has to run over to her and say "Hi Dolly!"
