the city of Hattiesburg is sur
rounding the golf course, no doves
nests have been seen on this area
in several years. The more space
that is used for human habitation
the fewer sites there are for dove
nests.
Doves lay an average of two
white eggs per cletch, and incu-
bate them about two weeks. The
squads remain in the nest about
II days. The entire nesting cycle
is little over a month. Because
OF the short period for each brood
and the long breeding season,
doves may produce or cletches
per season. Most of the nesting is
over in September, but some con-
tinue until October. There are
The Petal paper. [volume] (Petal, Miss.) 1953-19??, 1957-11-21

many immature in the fall. They
weight less than 3.5 ounces and
are too small for food.
The mortality rate is high, es-
pecially in bad weather. There
are many enemies of doves, other
than man. The parents cannot de-
fend the young very successfully.
Feeding Habits
Mourning doves feed almost en-
tirely on plant material as weed
seeds, berries, waste grain, etc. It
is because of the destruction of
weed seeds that they are helpful
to farmers. A total of 1900 seeds
of yellow wood sorrel was taken
from the stomach of one mourn
ing dove. How many could it eat
The Petal paper. [volume] (Petal, Miss.) 1953-19??, 1957-11-21

/ in one day? One month"; One
year?
Young doves are fed on pigeons
milk which they take from glands
in the threats of both parents.
This process can be seen at any
nesting site of pigeons. This food
is partially digested. The feeding
process requires the touching of
an enlargedarea at the corners of
the youngs mouth. when they
interlock bills, before it can swal-
low its regurgitated food. Only
the parents can do satisfactory
job of feeding young doves.
Doves eat many gravels to help
grind their food in the stomach.
They go for water each day about
shutdown in preparation for the
night.
Except in breeding season, they
feed and roost in flocks.

Members of the State Forestry
Commission hope that when
farmers learn they can earn $3.50

and Madison Counties, for pine
cones.
