Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura)
Photographed the Mourning Dove looking for seeds on the Cherry Hill Gate Trail in the RBG Hendrie Valley Sanctuary located in the City of Burlington Ontario Canada.
A graceful, slender-tailed, small-headed dove that’s common across the continent. Mourning Doves perch on telephone wires and forage for seeds on the ground; their flight is fast and bullet straight. Their soft, drawn-out calls sound like laments. When taking off, their wings make a sharp whistling or whinnying. Mourning Doves are the most frequently hunted species in North America.
