But then I noticed at the weekend that a cat had left a mess in my lawn so maybe they're being kept away by someone's cat. Or maybe it's just that the winter has been so mild so far that there are still plenty of other foods for them to eat? Whatever it is, I do miss them so I enjoy reading about other people's 'visitors'!Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608878937598033798.post-31406843184392244042012-01-09T20:01:28.942-08:002012-01-09T20:01:28.942-08:00ha ha! our blackbirds and grackles swoop in and g...ha ha! our blackbirds and grackles swoop in and get all the chicken scratch before the ducks or anyone else can get it. :)<br /><br />your dove is lovely!TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641962051044162710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608878937598033798.post-3453463375820947652012-01-08T20:40:12.757-08:002012-01-08T20:40:12.757-08:00I like mourning doves.

I get about ten down here at a time. I buy six 20lb. bags of bird chow each month. It feeds all the animals out there. There are big nuts and little nuts and lots of seeds in the bag. Even the fox eats the nuts from these bags. I have cut down and wish I could cut further but I have too many animals out there..Ha! And I love them all and love taking their pictures. I love the shirts with the dove on them. Take care! And thanks for all your comments on my blog!!
