Description
Mourning doves are thought by some researchers to be the most common native bird in North America. The mourning dove is the most hunted migratory game bird in North America. Federal and State regulations help ensure that these birds continue to thrive while providing hunting opportunities. The doves are found throughout the continent, a stable population in the East, declining in the West. Mourning doves sound just like they look — soft, shy, gentle. Hard to imagine the caw of a crow coming from a bird that looks like a dove. Two of them must have been in the mood for love because they started allopreening – pecking and grooming each other about the head and neck. They are very affectionate. Taken in South California.
