Migratory doves

Anybody seen many middle Georgia migratory doves recently? I have a patch of standing corn within a larger field, with select rows mowed now for a while and very few birds so far. There has been some cold weather farther north even before this latest arctic blast so thought would be more here by now. Same time last year 100-200 in same location had shown.

So think they just bypassed middle GA on way down due to severe cold?

No reason to think that; just know we have them in SW Ga. They’re going to go where they can find what they’re looking for, which is largely food.

Had a lot of birds at a shoot today; good to have the “yankee birds” in the neighborhood. Will be interesting to see if they stick around in the weeks ahead.
