to me, there's nothing more soothing than a mourning dove's call, late afternoon, in summer.

Along with the sound of the Dove is a flock of Geese o/head. I just have to stop and watch.
I have Doves nesting in the trees outside my bedroom windows from now untill october, Love the sound but it gets old quick. My wife on the other hand would gladly shoot them if she could. The Geese are a year round pain in the posterior here. fish and game spray the eggs with vegitable oil to keep them from hatching to keep the population down. but I agree when they go over I have to stop and watch.

We have a flock of Mourning Doves that dine in our yard (Thanks to the feed put out for them by VEE) and wait patiently for their meal by cooing in the morning and evening. A very pleasant sound that I never tire of.
Geese honking overhead also make me stop and look. I always wear a hat and keep my mouth shut though.

I also have them feed here in my little flower garden out back where I throw feed corn to the birds, now the young fellow next door does get him one or two every now and then, we are in the south so thats normal... I told him I didn't mind... I enjoy all the little birdies out back along with whatever else happens to show up for a little feed...
Oh yeah, and my morning coffee...
NOw where did I put that 410.............
Good fishing technique trumps all.....wish I had it.
We are just above the start of Turnagain Arm and from our deck the sandhills can be heard almost all summer long. Flocks often fly in loose spirals up and down and call all the while... They should be back soon...
