My flock of Morning Doves is nearly 60! They come in just before day break to eat & of course eat all throughout the day. It is important if you feed the birds to continue in the winter as they need you too. They stay because they need to fuel their self to survive the cold nights. If you don't want to feed birds in the wintry months one should stop feeding them in late summer to early fall so that they can find a good winter roosting where food is plenty...or they will die. They will be so hungry at times in the early morn they don't care if I am filling the feeders. (50lbs every 2-3 days) Of course I wear my camouflage & maybe they think I am a tree? All My Love & Embracing YOU! Arriving Into 2010!!!
Arrivals Sapphire skies owned by jewels delectations…. Ruby gloams upon eventide’s arriving eve; Dropping crystals from onyx painted firmaments; Where whirlwinds evenfall will polish the earth a new… White rain falls upon the statuesque limbs in solitudes; …Offering beauteous gems gathering wintry essence. Fireside hearths aglow warm the heart of homes; Giving presence into the slumbering closures of today… Crepuscular vibrancy fades into the quietude of nightfall, as we all await arrivals of our new birthing year… *Happy New Year 2010 an Arrival!!!* (Written: December 31^st, 2009 8:21 a/m) In Joy, In Peace, In Grace, In Harmony of Love Embraced ~ Embrassé poétesse d'amour ~ poétesse romantique Copyright© 2009 Poetess Victoria L.

Vickie, a true friend of nature are you -- I think your photo captures the essence of nature's beauty and emphasizes how fragile life is at the same time -- great work here -- may your 2010 be spiritually rewarding, filled with love and joy my friend -- Jon Michael

doves coo at me every day
in the morning noon and night
they for me wait to appear
then coo at me..... for me to hear
their sometime sadden lonely coos
Love & peace be with you
Happy New year

OMG your photos are always stunning. I always feel like I'm helping Mom when I feed the birds. She won a barn feeder in a contest.
We have morning doves- but just a pair.
Awesome arrivals!
