    Im here because i found a nest outside on my balcony in San Marcos tx. The babies finally hatched and i was curious when they feed them. This was so useful and i once found another bird outside my door, and now i know it was the mother switching places with the male.

    I'm sad they don't make documentaries like this anymore; actually crying while writing this! 😭

    Wonderful video. I wish they still made them like this. Just calm talk based on facts. No profanity, no political agenda, no overdramatized narration. I’m thankful to have happened upon this. I love Doves 🕊 ❤️

    I don't know or how to react on anyone's opinions, but this is my favorite bird ,American passenger pigeons were scattered around all over north America once outnumbered. They were totally instinct so morning doves are very close related to American passenger pigeons. Perhaps one day mourning doves will be extinct as well if we don't protect them by over hunting them. In Canada they are not hunted ,and in some parts of United states it's been hunted a lot .Please save the beautiful gorgeous peaceful bird mourning doves.

    I am looking g for a bird often featured (sound) on the TV show "All Saints". It has a very throaty cry, sort of like when DR. puts that wooden stick in your mouth and tells you to say aaaahhhhh! Only 10.000 times louder and very annoying. The All Saints show is made in Australia. Can anyone help me?

    • @chadsykes2067
      @chadsykes2067 Před 4 lety +2

      Why? The money that hunters spend is where they got the money to make documentary's like this and purchase the land for conservation and habitat improvement and that helps land owners know what they need to do to improve their own land. If anti hunters really cared about wildlife they would spent their money to buy land for the purpose of making a wildlife refuge but they don't...but the money from the hunters goes towards that land use too!

    Just for the pleasure of killing an animal we provide a license to some weird people. It’s a beautiful video but certainly a sad one.
