About this book

Explore the gentle world of mourning doves, from their familiar cooing calls and soft feathers to simple nests, tiny squabs, fast flight, and backyard life.

Mourning Doves Book for Kids

Through beautiful real photographs and engaging, easy-to-understand facts, MOURNING DOVES! shows kids how these widespread birds live, feed, nest, migrate, and raise their young. Readers will discover why mourning doves make their famous cooing sound, how their muted feathers provide camouflage, and why they are such familiar visitors to fields, cities, and backyards.

Inside you'll discover:

  • Why mourning doves make their soft, sad-sounding coo
  • How they eat seeds and use grit to help grind food in their stomachs
  • How pairs build simple nests and take turns caring for their eggs
  • Why baby doves are called squabs and are fed a special liquid called crop milk
  • How fast flight, migration, and whistling wings help mourning doves survive

Kids will also discover how mourning doves often mate for life, why they may raise several broods in a single year, and how they help spread seeds across the landscape. From perching on power lines to gathering in small flocks, each page reveals another fascinating part of mourning dove life.

This large 8.25" x 8.25" premium photo book uses beautiful full-color real photographs for an educational exploration of mourning doves, calls, nests, eggs, squabs, feeding, migration, and backyard bird behavior.
