Pigeon Or Dove?

This is a beautiful Rock Pigeon. I think the color was more blue than reality due ot the crazy lighting.

So, do you know the differencde between a 'rock pigeon' and a 'rock dove'? Are rock pigeons and doves the same?

It’s Cold Out Here

I could almost hear this Mourning Dove complaining about the cold temperatures. I took this at 15°F on a sunny winter day. I think she was warmer than I was.

Good Mourning 🤔

The last few times I have photographed a Mourning Dove the photo did not come out at all. This one is much better.
