I have several pair of Mourning Doves that come to my feeders year round. They love the safflower that I put in the ground feeders, but in the winter ...
they spend a lot of their time on my bird bath ... I assume because it is heated so there is warmth to be found.
Sometimes they just sit in the warm water. Not necessarily taking a bath, just getting warm.
And then time for a short snooze ...
But not for long ... one must remain vigilant. It is well known that Mrs. Coopers Hawk is a frequent visitor.
Happy Wild Bird Wednesday!
