The color and feather details are wonderful in this image! The Asian Collared Doves seem to have displaced our Mourning Doves, unfortunately. The “newbies” are beautiful, but they screech most of the time….and they multiply like crazy!
I love this picture, too … it’s so detailled and close, I just want to touch those soft feathers. But – why mourining? What’s the story behind this beautiful picture?

Gorgeous colours. Are those shades of Violet? X
Great composition and subject! Such gentle creatures.
I really love the face the bird has. Looks kind.
What a range of colour for one bird! – splendid.

I agree that mourning doves are pretty. This one is actually beautiful.
We have a few around here, but I have yet to get a good photo like this one.
Lovely bird!!!!!!!!
Lovely photo and beautiful matching colors.
for a ‘plain’ bird, they have remarkable coloration and feather patterns.
This is beautiful. Your texture work always blows me away. It’s subtle, soft, and just right…which is something I’m trying to learn.
Doves are such calm birds- nice pose!
Very good photo, I like the quality capture of that beautiful plumage.
A very pretty bird indeed! Gorgeous shot!
Lovely image, such a pretty bird. Fantastic details on the plumage.
Beautiful photo, and I love your use of texture!
