Doves are Everywhere

The requirement to stay home has given me an opportunity to see things I hadn’t really noticed before. Doves for instance. It seems they are everywhere. Were they always here but I wasn’t paying attention? On my morning walk in my urban neighborhood, I saw and heard at least 6 doves perched on rooftops, telephone wires, lampposts, and trees. This one had selected the most photogenic perch so it won out for today’s spot.

It did select a photogenic post. We’ve had lots of pigeons and doves here for as long as I can remember. They love Elderberry berries

Love the perch. The patterns in the wood compliment the patterns of the feathers. Nice photo!

Wonderful combination of intriguing perch with great textures and beautiful little dove.

I love the mourning dove and the sounds they make...their call and also the sound they make when they fly. Very sweet. Fav.

Fabulous shot, I love that stump of wood that it's sitting one. Doves really are all over the place, much too many of them.

Lots of color for a dove! Nicely composed too. I've got 'em all over my neighborhood too. I always know they're there because of their unique call.

great shot, the color of the feathers is really beautiful, I like the trunk on which it is resting, it can seem like imagination, an elephant or a mammoth...

[Merrelyn]

It certainly chose an interesting perch. It has such interesting shapes and textures.
