"Two Turtle Doves..."

Here is a pair of Mourning Doves on my house this morning.  Also known as turtle doves...so right there is a link to a Christmas song.  But doves are huge symbols in the Jewish and Christian faith.  Symbols of peace, fertility, the Holy Spirit...the list goes on.

Sadly, they are also the most hunted bird/animal in the country.  I liked seeing this pair on my house this morning.  They typically mate for life.  I hope to enjoy them again...
