That’s a baby mourning dove! There are usually two babies so the sibling is likely up in the nest. The parent could feed it on the ground if it feels safe to do so, but I’m not sure if the parents would know how to find it or would feel safe.

Oof, I didn’t give this thought when I signed in. I luckily didn’t reuse my password here but that’s a great reminder, and good to know my exposure…
Can you say more about the security issues?Asking for a technology dummy friend.
Omg so smart! I’m going to do this to swap out my Apollo icon spot with any studying app. Thanks for sharing!
I am finding myself absentmindedly clicking my Apollo icon every hour. I’m happy to say screw Reddit for years and years of bucking user preferences and accessible 3rd party apps, but this is definitely an unfortunate transition to leave behind all the many years of content and critical mass of activity Reddit has. I’m still having to use the browser version to access subreddits related to school admissions stuff because there’s extremely valuable content I just can’t get elsewhere yet.
I just hope something pushes another big wave of users off of the platform soon and keeps the momentum going. Knowing Reddit admins it’s only a matter of time.
They’re so derpy and sweet! I scrolled and posted a lot recently on Reddit (wah wah) on the mourning derps and stupid dove nest subreddits (hilarious) because I got a little dove nest in a plant pot on my own porch this spring! The mom actually just had another set of eggs! I have learned a lot about these damn birds.
I really hope you get to see this one grow and get to see the parents, too. Our last set of fledglings spend a lot of their “teenage” days on our balcony railing instead of in the nest and the mom kept on coming back to feed wherever they stood, until eventually they were coaxed to start really flying. Maybe your baby’s parents will swoop down and feed. Or like someone else said the fledgling may just adapt and figure it out - surely it will get hungry enough to try!
I’m officially a bird person thanks to mourning doves!
