You never know what next turns up in the relatively small Scheyville National Park to the northwest of Sydney, near the Hawkesbury!
 
At 1822 this evening I came upon a pair of Common Bronzewings on the path 15 meters ahead of me, and with them, a dainty Diamond Dove.....!!!
The Dove was only two feet from one of the Bronzewings so the difference in size was such a contrast - what a photo it would have made! I finally had to shift, so they all three took off and went away together.
 
Cheers,
Peter Madvig/ Beecroft NSW
PS. No - it was NOT a Peacefull Dove!
