Great pictures, very nice. Do you know what kind of bird they are. Thanks mike

Thanks Mike, they are called a Crested Pigeon and are very common down here. They are actually a dove not a pigeon and they are about half the size of a pigeon, cheers mate.

Nice little bird, thanks for letting me know. Cheers mike

Yeah they are fun to watch as well, they are usually fighting or the males are dancing a jig courting the girls, cheers mate.

Yeah I reckon, they let me get pretty close too without taking off, cheers mate.

Yes, yes they are, and they did a good job not being noticed by you for ages, how are they supposed to know if you're going to eat them or just take photos ;D They're so cute!

They are well camouflaged and they don't move a muscle and stay dead still even when you get closer, cheers mate.

I had pigeons nesting near by as well, some years ago. Usually you can hear them more than see them. Especially 5 o'clock in the morning...
