The Mourning Dove is a beautiful bird. Yes, they can obnoxious and make a mess, but they are so peaceful. I like watching them land. They have a very different cadence to their flight when approaching to land. If you listen close, you can also hear this interesting whistling sound as they take-off and land. Its cool.
What I did not know:
- They can fly up to 55 mph. I had no idea.
- They generally have two doves per brood, but they can do this up to six times a year.
They are not hard to find ... they are everywhere in towns, cities, and in the woods.
