My free range pets

I have many creatures visiting my backyard. Although I do not keep any pets, I consider these creatures my pets.

Of all the birds that visit my backyard, I have a soft spot for the Zebra doves who are so gentle and perpetually bullied by the larger Spotted doves.

Some like the Bulbul and Olive backed Sunbirds have chosen to make nests in my garden and I feel honoured by their choice of my humble lodgings.
