Totally unexpected

Dusk, a new male has shown up. This is a surprise. He must be here for a reason.
Oh, there's female attraction going on. "Kissing". I walk around slowly to other side for a  better view.
Fantastic! They're mating. Never saw this before between doves, absolutely balletic.
Male flew a short distance away.
Where did he go?
He came back.
She flew into fir tree, same tree robin is nesting in.
Where did she go? Even I couldn't find her.
Finally he spotted her. They sat down and roosted in the tree that night.

Doves mate for life. For sure they're somewhere in our garden. I'll keep looking for their nest. They're so peaceful and beautiful.
