Zenaida macroura
These Mourning Doves are all fluffed-up trying to stay warm on a cold and windy day. Soft, sandy buff colored with a long, pointed tail bordered with white. They have a low, mournful (hence its name) voice.
Common in rural areas.
The young are fed regurgitated, partially digested food known as pigeon milk.
