These two are frequent visitors, and spend a long time sitting in the fence next to each other.
And there is plenty of food to be had too! Definitely kissing!!

They don't have any idea of social distancing, I am afraid ...

Hi Rosa ,
Thank you for visiting!
I'm happy that you had a good look!!
In the background is a tree with pink leaves (sorry, I don't know its name), but since it was done with full zoom, even f9 gave a very small depth of field of around a foot..
As for the birds, I am sure they love each other very much!!
Best Wishes, and stay safe!

What a beautiful image Peter. They are so sweet together. Lovely detail with the fluffed up feathers and the light is really nice. Attractive bokeh too. Have a good evening and stay safe.

Hi Carol,
Your visit is much appreciated. Thank you!
Glad you like it.
They are actually under a tree, and conveniently enough, were in the sunlight at the time!
You can just make out traces of shadows on the fence.
Best Wishes, and stay safe!

Aw, this is so cute, Peter! They really do look so happy together. :)

I really like the bokeh too. It's very magical.

Hi Karen,
Thank you very much!
I'm happy that you had a good look!!
They are sitting on the fence at the end of my garden, and come here regularly. I am sure they live locally... Behind them in the distance is a tree with small deep pink coloured flowers. I had a close look at it today, thinking I might figure out what it is for you, but I couldn't!! Sorry!
Best Wishes, and stay safe

Hi Steve ,
Thank you very much!
I am pleased you found it interesting.
As I have said a couple of times, this is the fence at the end of my garden. They are quite tame, and come here often...
Best Wishes, and stay safe

Hi Peter!
I love this lovely and tender image: I suppose they belong to the so-called 'Inseparable Birds' species.
(I got curious and went to the web to find out about them:-)
The only thing I'm sure, I must say, is that they're kissing!!!
Best wishes and keep safe.

Hi Bea ,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.
I am pleased you found it interesting.
I am pretty sure they are called 'Collared Doves' in England. This pair are frequent visitors to my garden, but I haven't seen them kissing since!
Best Wishes, and stay safe
