Hello birders, I had a strange male dove in my yard today-saw it mating with a typical mourning dove. It was very colorful with a bluish tinge on the head and nape, quite pinkish on the breast, and a small white crescent at the apex of the wings. It appeared to be larger than the female. I’ve never noticed a dove like this before-could it be breeding plumage? Caroline Haines Gloucester <Songbirder...>
