The ring-necked dove (Streptopelia capicola), also known as the Cape turtle dove or half-collared dove, is a widespread and often abundant dove species in East and southern Africa. It is a mostly sedentary bird,[2][3] found in a variety of open habitats. Within range, its penetrating and rhythmic, three-syllabled crooning is a familiar sound at any time of the year.[3] Its name is derived from the semi-collar of black feathers on the lower nape,[4] a feature shared with a number of Streptopelia species. Like all doves, they depend on surface water. They congregate in large flocks at waterholes in dry regions[2] to drink and bat

They come around my house every early morning and afternoon.
Singing sound is so sad buy love to hear

The dove is a symbol of peace in the world so killing doves makes me feel bad.

But there are a lot of quails in my property that taste so good.

Thanks

Never had quail. The little bit of hunting I did when I was younger never turned into quail for dinner. They were too fast, and (little did I know, then) my shotgun didn't put the shot where you aimed it.

After several years of really crappy results, I had decided I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with a shotgun. Then my brother literally shot at the barn just to discover where the pellets were going. By then, after a couple of years of missing everything, I had given up on shotguns. Haven't touched one since I was 17.

I did occasionally get a dove, but that must have been the few occasions when I shot so poorly that I hit the bird anyway. Nobody ever suggested to me that you had to sight-in a shotgun.

In my younger "daze" I used to wake up every morning listening to some guy down the hill trying to start his tractor. It ran a short time, then stopped.
A friend finally told me it was a Grouse.

Is that like a Eastern Whippoorwill ? Sometime called an Nightingale.

Several years back I was riding along in central Illinois, heading to Milan. Friend was telling me his aunt sent three of the boys out to hunt for a mess of doves, she was going to make a meat pie. Jim said she couldn't tell the difference between dove breasts and Red Winged Blackbird breasts....... tasted the same too.

Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing—
Wasn't that a dainty dish
To set before the king?
The king was in the counting-house
Counting out his money,
The queen was in the parlor
Eating bread and honey,
The maid was in the garden
Hanging out the clothes.
Along came a blackbird
And snipped off her nose.
Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing—
Wasn't that a dainty dish
To set before the king?
