Mourning doves are a common occurrence at my feeders. They tend to eat from the ground, picking up all the seed that is scattered by other birds. They are very tame birds and actually have the largest numbers in suburban areas. The males start making the characteristic dove call when they are looking for a mate. They can mate anytime of year, but this especially starts in late winter. Once they find a mate, they will stop calling.
