Fields between T-town and Okmulgee were loaded last week, not as many this week. Moved on? Last week was the most dove I've seen around here in years.

I took this about a mile from my house last week. Excuse the crappy picture. This line was loaded with dove, all up and down it.

I've been driving out in western OK all week. I haven't been seeing any more than the usual. I don't think it's gotten cold enough up north to move them down.

Ridgehunter I have been seeing them like that in town. Dang city bird feeders are drawing them on in. Reckon a silenced 12 gauge might be the answer.
One thing I have noticed is a lot of no till farmers worked the crop residue under this year or burned it off or both. There is a lot less grain stubble on the surface. The wetter spring and summer might have been hard on nesting birds as well.
