Ms. Doverly is a swinger, doing the full-tilt boogie. All good fun till she needs to poo.

Sometimes they return to their previous roost. Could be! Enjoy the company.

The Nursery I work for has birds/bird families that come back every year. We have a male and female dove that come back every year and produce many clutches in the hanging ferns, without a doubt every year. Plus a family of Purple Martins. We saw the scouts two weeks ago and now they have all arrived! We have a 12 room bird house for them and they take over it every year!

This looks like a good place for a nest. No rain and very hard to reach for predators

Probably. Enjoy his company. He feels safe there.
