The mourning doves are a big part of the activity here in our backyard. They really make themselves at home here. Their songs sound like an owl and they eat and rest in the shade here all day long. They love to feed off the ground but if necessary will work the feeder too.We enjoy having them around and they don't mind us either.

Here the dove contemplates getting to the rim to feed. It's not easy for a big bird to do this but they learned!

A curious at me, fairly young mourning dove walking to the feeding dish. She is flawless!
