I have a mourning dove that hangs around my rock garden area. It may be my imagination but I think there is a nest in the shrub which I have yet to find. When I am out working in the front yard it hangs around, close, on the stone ledge and in the rocky areas. In reality it probably is hunting for insects to eat and is a young bird. This was Sunday morning and I was busy watching for humming birds when I saw this beauty just sitting on the deck ledge. The sunlight was at just the right angle to cause the colors of the feathers to be browner that what is normally viewed.

A beautiful bird which looks like the doves of Martinique Island.
No hummingbirds aver here but in Martinique, yes.
At a former house, we had so many mourning doves. I loved to hear them.
