DescriptionMourning Dove Male Seedskadee NWR (16950935194).jpg |
Adult male: iridescent blue and pink on hind neck, with pinkish bloom extending onto breast; orbital skin pale blue. Adult female: similar to adult male, but with reduced iridescence and pinkish bloom. <a href="http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/birding/mourning-dove/" rel="nofollow">animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/birding/mourning-d...</a> Cool Mourning Dove Facts: Mourning Doves tend to feed busily on the ground, swallowing seeds and storing them in an enlargement of the esophagus called the crop. Once they’ve filled it (the record is 17,200 bluegrass seeds in a single crop!), they can fly to a safe perch to digest the meal. Mourning Doves eat roughly 12 to 20 percent of their body weight per day, or 71 calories on average. Perhaps one reason why Mourning Doves survive in the desert: they can drink brackish spring water (up to almost half the salinity of sea water) without becoming dehydrated the way humans would. The Mourning Dove is the most widespread and abundant game bird in North America. Every year hunters harvest more than 20 million, but the Mourning Dove remains one of our most abundant birds with a U.S. population estimated at 350 million. The oldest known Mourning Dove was 31 years 4 months old. <a href="http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Mourning_Dove/lifehistory" rel="nofollow">www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Mourning_Dove/lifehistory</a> Photo: Tom Koerner/USFWS |
