Mourning Dove |
|
Zenaidura macroura - At all seasons the commonest native dove in suburbs and farmlands. Flight is swift and direct, without coasting; the whistling of the wings is diagnostic. Nests singly, feeds in flocks. We saw one at the end of our driveway. Call, a low hhhooo-hooo-hoo-hooo. Because of its size it tends to bully the other birds. But the other birds seem to be patient and wait it out. Look at Next Bird Back to Bird Directory Page 2 Back to Bird Thumbs Page 5 |
