THE Mourning Dove is one of America's most appreciated and heavily hunted
birds. Its soft, melodious voice, reminiscent of America's lovely countrysides,
sings of spring and summer from southern Canada to southern Mexico, and across
America from ocean to ocean. This is a story of the successes and tragedies in
the life of one bird, his families and friends, drawn from knowledge of the
fates of birds from over 5,000 nests. Dr. Elliott McClure, ornithologist,
entomologist, and conservationist, spins this true story from his 70 years of
experience with the natural world. A well known scientist and author, his
writings provide insight into the meaningful behavior of wild birds.
