Am I the only one this dense 😂?

[AndrésC64]

Until recently, I always thought that the name of these birds were Morning Doves. 🤪

YES - You are dense

NO - You are not dense

WE are both dense

[Amy10223]

They are mourning doves, spelled with a u. You aren’t dense, you didn’t know the correct term but knew the right pronunciation. I have those where I am and they come to my bird feeders all the time. They make these sounds, almost like a purring sound and I guess it’s supposed to sound mournful.

There are lots around here. Also crows and parrots some people released. They are really annoying.

It looks like a dove to me, but most doves I've seen are grey and white. I don't see many of them though. It's been quite a while since I've seen or heard one.

It's an understandable mistake, but I do know how to spell mourning dove.

[AndrésC64]
