White Winged Dove

Along with bats and bees, the White Winged Dove plays a significant role in pollinating our Saguaro blooms. They also LOVE sipping nectar from the blossoms and eating the fruit so we’ve been hearing them COO from the time the buds show up until the last fruit fell about a week ago. With their favorite food source dwindling, there are less and less of them around now.
