Do you ever get the feeling you’re being watched? I discovered this large flock of Mourning Doves in the neighbor’s oak tree just outside my office window the other day. They came back again the next day.
They were way up at the top of the tree—about 70 feet from the ground. They sat for as long as an hour one day just preening, looking around or dozing.
I counted at least 25 birds each time. Each time one eventually decided to fly away and the rest followed the leader.
