A LITTLE FRIEND RETURNS



Every spring, like clockwork, we get a visit from a lone mourning dove.  He was here on Monday morning.  I looked out and he was on the driveway in front of the house.  I went out and shook the bird feeder to disperse the sunflower seeds on the ground so he could have something to eat.  He made his way over to his spot under the feeder and foraged for some seeds.  The wind and snow came in the afternoon and he flew over to the pine and settled in protected to wait out the storm.  He was there this morning but I can't see him this afternoon.  He is somewhere.  He usually hangs around for a few days and then he flies off somewhere.  He has been coming around for well over 4-5 years so he is an older bird.  Always nice to see a friend.
