Today morning when I opened the balcony and peeped into the dove nest, I noticed only one nestling. I wondered what had happened to the other one. The answer came when I was watering my garden. A crow swooped down, grabbed the chick by the neck, and flew away. All I could see was the tiny brown thing hanging helplessly from the crow's beak. I guess that is life.
The nest is empty. The parent had fed the chick in the morning and gone away possibly to get more food. I wonder whether they will return.
