Media notes
These two Mourning Doves were actually very quiet at the time of observation. I believe they were foraging, however I did not see them eat. They stook still for quite a while and one appeared to be bobbing his/her head. I don't know what that means.
Observation details
I believe this is a very conservative estimate of Mourning Doves! I love to listen to their cooing and watch them in flight! They seem to congregate at the bottom of one of my pine trees where bird seed drops from the feeders! They do seem to be a “skittish bunch”. They take off in flight at the slightest hint of passing by!
