Mourning Dove

Zenaida macroura

Habitat:

trees near apartment buildings

Notes:

The little one is learning how to fly. It made it from its nest in a nearby tree to the top of this lamp post, but got spooked. It kept shivering and cowering behind dad(?) until dad took off and flew to the ground, forcing the little one to try to fly down after it.
