I had been wondering why my Kabuki, my normally strictly indoor cat, had been quite adventurous in the last week, wanting to go out onto my balcony the minute I got home. I figured she had just gotten chilled in the a/c air inside and enjoyed laying in the sun for hours.
Well, today, I dragged the cats in off the balcony and went to water my plants. Up high, out of reach, in my flowering hanging basket sat a dove.
The dove wouldn't move. Just stared at me.
I'm too short to see in the basket, but I'm thinking that the bird is not sick, but that she's sitting on a nest.
In my plant.
A plant that desperately needs to be watered.
After my discovery, I left, and just now at sunset have come home to look again, hoping she'd left to feed.
Nope, still sitting there, staring at me.
How am I going to water my plant without frightening the bird off her nest?!?!?
