Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura)

I find that the same species act differently in Florida to how they act here. Mourning Doves in Canada never go on my feeders, instead they scavenge on the ground below the feeders. Very different in Florida.

Yes, it's strange that, isn't it Dan. He's got plenty to tuck into there.

You've taken a charming picture of him my friend.
