Participant Photo: Dove’s unique beauty

This Mourning Dove has a deformed beak and at one time was infected I am so happy to see her in the yard and know I played a little part by providing food and fresh water throughout the cold winter months. Also I clean my feeders at least every two weeks and replace many in the Spring. After ran and snow I dump all the seed out even if I filled it the day before, yes it is a waste but it keeps the birds healthy.
