White-winged Dove Feeding

Yet another appearance of our visiting White-winged Dove. This time near dark. The bird swooped down as clouds moved in and began to feed all alone. Though this photo suggests that the bird wasn't sure it was alone.



I have never seen more than one White-winged Dove in the yard at the same time but I still get very excited when I see one at all.



Breaks up that usual Mourning Dove crowd we have every day. It also doesn't seem to gorge like its smaller cousins do.



Kind of glad I haven't found any Eurasian Collared-Doves here for some reason, though they have been seen not too far away from time to time.
