Interesting. Haven’t seen a dove around here since the end of June. Usually have some hanging around the house.
We are cover up with dove here in West TX. Mourning Dove, Whitewings and Eurasians are thicker than I’ve ever seen them. Just our luck a cold front will hit before opener and push them south. The Eurasians don’t seem to migrate like the Morning and Whitewings do in fact they and the Whitewings have just about pushed the Mourning Dove out of the area.
