Good mourning, my little doves

This morning, we saw a mourning dove picking through the bird seed on the ground. I was surprised to see him all by himself, as I always see mourning doves in groups. He proceeded to pick through the food for about 20 minutes before flying away. However, he soon returned... with about a dozen friends. The ground was suddenly overrun with doves! I knew he wasn't all alone. ;-)

Meanwhile, we believe we have spotted at least one female finch to go with the two males that we have seen. We'll have to see if they move into one of the bird houses.
