Bird Tweet of the Week: Mourning Dove
Being described as inquisitive and bubbly, the Mourning Dove is a species that is native to North America. This species is quite colourful up close despite their basic dark brown upper parts and tan underside.
Each week we introduce a new bird from the Ottawa-Gatineau area through our segment on CBC Radio’s In Town and Out. Alex MacDonald, Nature Canada’s Manager of Protected Areas, shares interesting facts about the birds that live in our communities. Be sure to tune-in to “Bird Tweet of the Week” on CBC Radio One 91.5 FM on Saturday mornings from 6am to 9am and listen to past episodes on our website.
