Dove Love by sunnygreenwood

Dove Love

On any given sunny afternoon this time of year, we're likely to see a pair of mourning doves basking and grooming themselves on the corner of the railing. There are lots of them around and it's hard to say if it's always the same pair.

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend. We've been busy both at home and on the road. Took lots of pics but I thought I'd share this recent bird shot of Barry's with you while the birds are still around.

Many thanks for dropping by.
Nice focus and detail. You must go through tons of corn :-)

Sweet! I love their sounds.

Do they mate for life?
April 9th, 2012  
@june yes, apparently they do june. at least one site said the pairs stay solitary but in our experience, we have little flocks of them all winter long.

One is standing guard and the other is napping. We have mourning doves too and I always love watching them peck around the ground. Hope you had a nice day.
