This fluffed up mourning dove is awaiting its turn at a platform feeder featuring safflower seeds. I know that cardinals, finches, chickadees, and downy woodpeckers are all fond of safflower seed. Now, I know that mourning doves love it, too.

Wishing all my Flickr friends a very Happy Thursday! Stay warm and stay safe!
