Glad the hunting is good. Will take the boy out this week, if it ever clears.

Went a couple of weekends ago and didn't even see 2 dozen birds. The ones that did come by were hard to hit. It was my first dove hunt. If the birds are flying I can sure see what fun it would be shooting.

We always called them turtle doves, never understood where that name came from. Nowadays they come to my bird feeders.

There are more than 40 species of dove. In Texas alone there are 12 different hunt-able species. Pigeons are a type of dove called Rock Dove.
