These birds always make me think of my grand-ma. Weird story I guess. She was one to speak of wives-tales, and she used to say that if you heard an owl cry in the morning, that meant someone died... and well, Mourning doves do sound kind of like an owl...so me and my cousins always thought someone died when we heard these birds, we just had no idea it was not an owl.
Love this shot of him perched on the wire fence. You're right, the feathers do look so smooth they almost don't look like feathers, just makes me want to pet one when I see them around.
I think these birds look so gracefull and elegant. The feathers on the neck and breast are so smooth they don't even look like feathers, and I love the blue around the eye.
