The Sound of Flight
The Mourning Dove - improperly named in my opinion. I'm sure ornithologists had their reasons, but I find this bird to be a harbinger of joy rather than sorrow. It is one of the first sounds of the day and is one of the only birds with it's sound of flight louder than it's song. A pair of Mourning Doves is a backyard delight.
