A pair of Spotted Doves (Spilopelia chinensis) incubate eggs in a flimsy twig nest built beside a window of a house in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on February 11, 2026. Spotted Doves, native to Asia, typically lay two small white eggs in nests made of twigs placed in trees, bushes or on building ledges, with both parents sharing incubation duties for about 13-16 days.
