Peaceful Dove Perched on a Branch, Cleland
When you dress in your finest feathers but no one notices your new look!
During my morning walk through Cleland Wildlife Park, I came across a Peaceful Dove perched gracefully on a moss-covered branch. Its soft blue-grey feathers were beautifully patterned with black and white markings on its wings and neck. The dove's bright eyes were encircled by a delicate blue ring that matched its beak perfectly. As it sat there with its long tail elegantly hanging down the branch’s rough texture added to the authenticity of the scene. The background blurred into a mix of green foliage and tree branches suggesting the dense forest area that surrounded us. Sunlight filtered through the trees casting gentle highlights on the dove’s delicate features making it look almost ethereal. It was a serene moment that captured the essence of nature’s quiet beauty.
