Soft wings over the vines

Turtle Doves visit the Vrsac Mountains from May to August, breeding in mosaics of woodland, hedgerows and farmland. They sometimes appear at our feeding areas and drinking pools, their delicate pattern and soft colours fitting perfectly with the wine-country landscape. This is a species in decline across Europe, so every respectful encounter feels special.
