They are mourning dovelettes that have pinfeathers at the moment. Jake got a lot of oohs and aahs and “Oh! How adorable” plus extra attention from the staff, so he thought it was worth it. Thanks, Dale.
Oh, my goodness — look at the baby doves! (Sorry — I had to get that out of my system.) Jake’s expression slayed me. That last cloud-scape is breathtaking. It’s so dramatic. Thanks for all this fun, Tim. Hugs.
Thanks, Resa. Laurie has taken Jake out to walk the last couple of evenings. I’ve been too worn out from working at Tristan’s house. Jake comes up and looks at me like, “Well? Are you coming with us?” and then he looks sad when I tell him I’m not going with them.
Jake made my pups laugh…don’t tell him, but I think they were laughing “at” him and not “with” him. Ours have never let us forget that we had the audacity (their words, not mine) to put them in pumpkin costumes for Halloween a few years back. If they even get a peak at those in he drawer they turn into psycho killers.

Cute doves and Jake the reindeer. What kind of bird is the first image?
The first bird is a thrasher. Thanks, Brad.
Thanks Tim.
I’ve never seen this type of dove. How cool are they?
Jake ain’t convinced on his new headgear…

You boys are like Spunk. He doesn’t put up wth costumes or taking pills. Jake got attention. That’s all that matters. Thanks, Brian.
