You shoot dove to get in practice for duck season.
They aren’t as easy as it sounds.
I have about 2 dozen doves here at the spread that are very fat from my feeding them constantly. A few of them look like the spuce goose trying to take off, they are so fat.
I am sure if they ever are encountered by dove hunters the hunters will wonder what they have been eating.
I was not aware that dove hunting existed in this area, so I looked it up and it turns out that the doves often have flown south by the time the season begins, or even if not they tend to stay hidden in private orchards so not a reliable bird for hunting here.
