I had to be up at 4am this morning to take my Mum somewhere, and having dipped on the Turtle Dove at Snowlands Fisheries, Par on two occasions I decided to drop in and have a look this morning. This is a very shy bird. Even though it was high up in dense foliage it still spooked if I got within a few hundred yards of the tree, but I did manage a couple of record shots. You need to use a tripod for this one and keep your distance!
