Sunday Morning Mourning Dove

I am indulging myself again by posting seven photos of this morning's mourning dove. This bird has been difficult for me to photograph, but today I did it. I love her calm serenity and her eyes. Her eyes and lids have this wonderful bluish tint. Please take the time to view these photos full size by clicking on them. They will open in a new window.

I have had so many birds at the feeders this week that it is difficult to choose which photos to post. But I am sorting them out according to the needs of the memes.

Only a couple of hours after these photos were taken it began to snow and snowed all afternoon. The ground that you see here is now white. Again.

  1. We get a lot of mourning doves in Brooklyn, they love to flock to our bird feeder. The cats love to "watch" them.
