| Last year, when I was still walking almost daily through my neighborhood, there were quail everywhere, as well as mourning doves. |
| Farmland birds that fared particularly well included kestrels, greenfinches and stock doves. |
| I have been asking around to see if anyone has seen two white fantail doves. |
| Most observations relate to larks, pipits and finches but kestrels are capable of taking such quarry as fieldfares, turtle doves and lapwing. |
| Thus, he lists as noblest the meat of turtledoves, starlings, doves, quails, pheasants, blackbirds, woodcock, partridge, and chaffinch. |
| They went back to the refuge of their hole happy, for they had seen a few peacocks, a few koels and a flock of doves. |
