Just a couple of weeks after hosting a Band-tailed pigeon in our pine tree, this morning my wife told me to look out my office window at the top of the (truncated) pine tree in our yard. There, sitting on one of the top branches, was a Mourning dove! While they're not particularly rare in the county, they're not exactly abundant either. And this is only the second I have seen in the neighborhood, the first being about four years ago when we were living in a rent house down the hill.
The bird has since flown down to the ground, BUT the wind is howling outside and it just started raining. Hopes for a photo are dimming!
