Subject: [MBBIRDS] Mourning Dove Population Control
Hi birders,

This one is NOT for the faint of heart or squeamish. You may want to
ignore this email.

For some time we've noticed an over abundance of mourning doves. They've
been devouring seed intended for sparrows. Well, today we had a local?
COOPER's HAWK help solve "the problem". Harsh, but here are links to
crappy photos, shot through tinted double pane windows in poor light,
that make the story clear:

A reminder of just how tough life can be.
