MOURNING DOVE<br />
Mourning doves rank among the most familiar breeding<br />
birds in <strong>Ohio</strong>. They are one <strong>of</strong> the few native species that<br />
thrive in close association with humans. The ability to adapt<br />
to <strong>Ohio</strong>’s changing landscape has allowed mourning doves<br />
to become common summer residents in every county.<br />
A male, particularly in spring, can be seen with iridescent<br />
YOM KIPPUR<br />
patches <strong>of</strong> green and pink on his neck. These doves regularly<br />
reside near rural and suburban residences, nesting in shrubbery<br />
and shade trees while finding a plentiful source <strong>of</strong> food<br />
on residential lawns and at bird feeders. The bird is named for<br />
its song: a low, mournful coo-ah, coo, coo, coo.<br />
