Mourning doves in the rain (this morning)
= new reply since forum marked as read
The drops are plainly visible on the bird's wing feathers. Quite a feat, if you ask me!
but my most faithful are a group of mourning doves.....I have come to appreciate them 
Their cooing sometimes seems to come from a room I'm in, while the doves are likely calling from an eave or a nearby tree. When I was a child their cooing sounded exotic to me; like something I'd heard in a Tarzan movie.
