Need advice for mourning dove

[DoveNoob]

Hello,
I am new to his community and to mourning doves but I love them! Several pairs have been nesting and hatching in my backyard this summer, on eaves and in trees. I leave them alone And watch from a distance. Here's where I need your advice: Recently I was walking through my shrubs to water my plants, and 4 doves flew up from amongst the grasses. I observed 2 were chicks and 2 were likely the parents. Since then, the 2 chicks have been seen on the ground, together, and walking around various parts of my garden, usually in the shaded areas. I have not been able to see any nests on the ground. I have not seen their parents either. I have seen them fly. They look healthy though this morning their crop didn't look full. I left a shallow plate of water near where they hang around .
Should I continue to leave them alone? Why aren't they flying off? Is there anything I shiuld do? It has been 2 days since I inadvertently disturbed the 4 of them from the shrubs.
Thanks for any advice,
Noob in California

The parents may have weaned them. If you want you can put some bird seed in the area that they frequent.

Thank you. Sounds like they should be ok then. Whew! Here's a photo of them sitting under an area I often see them at.
