The Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura) is one of the most widely distributed and abundant of all the birds of North America.  It is also a prolific breeder.  One pair can raise up to six broods of two chicks each in a single year. The bird is a strong flier with the wings making an unusual whistling sound.  Mourning doves are a muted light grey and brown.  The males and females look alike and are generally monogamous.  Their diet consists almost exclusively of seeds.  This mourning dove was photographed perched on a branch at Las Cruces, New Mexico, USA.
