Gentle Souls

I love watching and listening to the Mourning Doves. They always appear so soft and gentle, unlike some of the more aggressive birds I have observed lately. I also enjoy waking up to the sound of them cooing outside my window in the morning. Taken with the Canon 50D and Sigma 150-500. C&C welcome.

Nice look at this pair. I like them too and they always seem to stay close together. Sharon

Nice to get them both sharp, Clayton. I think I might brighten the overall image just a touch. Well done. :toast:
