dove report
 

in north east mississippi its seems that the doves are somewhere else...the fields we always hunt on are holdind no birds...hope they come soon...i seen where destrey reported that southern illonois looked good on the doves...what does the other states look like... charlie

They are building up here in SC:draw:

Southern Colorado appears to be below average due to dry conditions, at least on my place. Better than last year though if they stay around.

we have more than ever

but some tone deaf person up here decided years ago that doves are songbirds

:rolleyes:

Looking good so far here in so. Texas.

I've got Doves all over my back yard, but they're safe here in NJ. We grow them fat for PA, DE, and MD!

New Jersey is small, just chase em across the border. :whistle:

The corn is being cut around my house now and we have started seeing more birds. Keeping fingers and toes crossed.

We have a 3 acre field of sunflowers here in central Virginia that they seem to be hitting right regular !

We should get it bush hogged next week some time !

And hopefully I'll have about 100 rounds of 2 1/2" 12 gauge loaded for the opener and I can use my W&C Scott sidelock !

Might load 50-75 2 3/4" 16 gauge for my Fox AH as well :whistle:
