It's best to move a nest of baby doves only if absolutely necessary, such as if it's in a dangerous location. Ideally, wait until the babies are at least two weeks old and nearly ready to fledge. To move the nest, carefully relocate it to a nearby sheltered spot, ideally maintaining the same height and orientation. Ensure you do this during the early morning or late evening when the parents are less likely to be around.

Why would a dove take over a robins nest that has baby birds in it?
A dove might take over a robin's nest with baby birds due to a few reasons, such as a need for a secure nesting site or competition for resources. Doves may perceive the nest as a safe location for raising their own young, especially if they are unable to find an unoccupied nest. Additionally, if the parent robins are absent or not vigilant, the doves might exploit the opportunity to take over the nest. This behavior, while not common, can occur in the competitive world of nesting birds.
