Charlie,
I thought Mississippi doves flew north to cool off? It used to be we had thousands of doves the first weeks of September. Farming has changed and now no one cuts silage. So our best dove season is in November for a ten day season then December at Christmas for a twenty-four day season. When it is cold the birds (all males) are here in abundance after they shell the corn. It was not like that in my younger days. It is more fun to go out at daybreak and shoot two boxes of shells than to sit in a deer stand after the rut rubbing a rabbit's foot.
