Congratulations Karen I'm slowly catching up on posts - I've missed a ton from the beginning of May. It must be soooo exciting being a first-time grandma It amazes me how quickly they grow. I love the picture with the baby still partially in it's shell taken by the adult's foot - what a great way to show perspective! I'm looking forward to watching this little one grow up!

Karen, gosh, I don't even know how to describe how wonderful these pictures are, the setting is terrific, the clarity terrific and the birds are super terrific. That mother is one of the prettiest I have ever seen. They oughta be on a calendar. Just great!

Isabella is quite the "Yummy Mummy". With parents like that it would be impossible for this little one to be anything other than stunning when he matures.

Hi Karen,

What an adorable baby!!!! I can see the handsome parents are quite doting! That baby is QUITE A STRIKING COMBO OF THE TWO! Please share a pic when he/she grows up.

I know you are enjoying this yourself, its so nice to hug a little one, glad you have one of your own now.

I have a white dad, black diamond mom combo, who turned out to be the biggest bossiest black male pigeon ever, but I love him. Darth is all black with one white sock and white feathers on his behind!!!

Thanks all for your kind words!
However, I can't take credit for the photos - my husband is the cameraman. (He's very pleased that you all have been enjoying his pics though)

It is amazing how the baby already shows the characteristic fantail neck pose, and that little tail looks something like a pincushion but oh-so-cute! Once the feathers are all open, I will post more photos. I think this baby is going to be a real looker.

S/he has an equal number of white flights on each wing and fairly even white markings on the back and chest. But mostly black feathers. Very nice color.

Little baby squeeker is almost a month old now. We've been calling her "Twizzle" and I think it will stick. Here's a photo from a few days ago:
