Often Overlooked


The gentle Mourning Dove's soothing call seems to be a constant at present and really is there a sweeter sound? I so enjoy having these lovely souls around and at least at this time of year they are not yet being harassed by the migratory White-winged Doves.

  2. Mourning doves are my favorite backyard birds. I also find them to be peaceful compared to the white-winged ones who visit in the summer. Sweet picture!

  3. I can understand that Kathie, they are rather messy. Maybe you could put something under their nest to catch the poop?

  4. Me too Diane, I think they are so soft and beautiful. I am never happy to see the White-winged Doves, they are such thugs!
