Investigations of methods of determining abundance of breeding mourning doves in certain eastern states Investigations of methods of determining abundance of breeding mourning doves in certain eastern states
A call count over a 20 mile route (beginning 1/2 hour before local official sunrise and with 20 stops of 3 minutes duration 1 mile apart) gives a more practical index to the abundance of mourning doves in the breeding season than roadside counts and area population studies tried in 1950. Calling activities showed relatively high peaks and low depressions during April and May of 1951...
