Mourning doves

October 16, 2010

This morning I saw a cote of mourning doves, together their wings made a great sound when they took off as I approached.   I find them so pretty and not pigeon-ey  and the sense memory of that soulful sound they make has followed me my whole life.   It is somehow so comforting.   They are for the most part monogamous and the male searches for sticks and twigs for nest making and the female weaves the nest.
