I captured this image driving along Joe Overstreet Road in Kenansville, Florida. Doves I find difficult to approach, they flush way before being in range for photography. I guess being hunted in some places makes them fearful and edgy when humans are around. I just don't understand this hunting thing with doves, certainly not big enough for eating, must be just killing something that flies. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.
