I didn't appreciate what you'd done with this, in the glimpses I'd seen before. But now seeing a close up of how the doves looked before, I really love how your painting has transformed them! As well as covering the chips/scratches, it's made them look softer and more serene, very good work!

I think that doves are particularly charming and I have posted about them before. That a species is common does not guarantee its survival in the face of onslaughts that might include persecution, unsustainable hunting, habitat loss, and the effects of pesticides and other toxic substances and pollutants. The extinction in the late 1800s of the common Passenger Pigeon in North America is a particularly dramatic example of the complete eradication of a numerous population of birds (for more on the Passenger Pigeon see here).
Laughing Doves (Spilopelia senegalensis) are a modest presence in our garden. They are relatively small doves and they spend a lot of their time foraging on the ground. For more about Laughing Doves see here and here.
The Red-eyed Dove (Streptopelia semitorquata) graces our neighbourhood with its lovely lilting call. It is similar to the Ring-necked Dove (Streptopelia capicola) that also occurs in our region but does not visit our neighbourhood. For more about these doves see here.
When we first moved to where we now live about 15 years ago a small posse of Tambourine Doves (Turtur tympanistria) used to visit regularly foraging together as a group. Sadly, these days we only see one or two doves at a time and not as frequently as before, and their wonderful liquid call is less apparent too.
The fourth dove to visit our garden is the Lemon Dove (Columba larvata), which featured previously in this post. It usually sticks to thick cover and I have only seen it venturing out onto more open ground at dusk or on very overcast days (when the low light adds to the difficult of photographing this usually wary bird). Recently though, when there were a few overcast days we were delighted to see a pair of Lemon Doves venturing out to look for seed on a patch of lawn.
A fun post for one who only knows of one dove species around here. So many birds are far more colorful when seen in the right light. Looks like your doves also have subtle colors that show up when the sun cooperates.
After reading your informative post I went into our garden to confirm that the doves who inhabit it are red eyes. And of course I could not find a single dove! Thanks for another beautifully written, photographed and researched article. The information on the environmental threats to birds is frightening. A friend who visit Japan said that she noticed the absence of birdsong in the cities. We who have gardens filled with birdsong are lucky.
PS Earlier this week there were two hornbills sitting and wailing loudly at one another in the topmost branches of the jacaranda tree in the garden. It was both funny and remarkable.
I have been doing a TON of newborns lately & I have to say I COMPLETELY love them!! Here are a few samples of my newborn work as well as some of my complimentary facebook cover designs I give to all of my clients
*I would love to take pictures for you & your baby! If you would like to book a newborn session it is best to book before they are 10 days of age! Please contact me before you give birth or as quickly afterward as possible so I can let you know my availability! TurtleDove...@gmail.com
After graduating high school, I went to College of the Ozarks near Branson, Missouri. They have a beautiful campus and had one of the best photography programs in southwest Missouri. I could play in the darkroom (that was back in film days!) and had plenty of inspiration in the surroundings and awesome students I got to know there. I met and married my incredibly supportive husband there and we have two funny, intelligent sarcastic children who are grown and have both moved to St. Louis. We have 2 dogs, Bella and our newest, Gracie that we love to take with us when we go camping.
People want to be accepted and feel heard. I guide you before your session and listen to what is important to you. During your session or wedding I encourage you and pump you up! By the end we've laughed and taken great portraits that you love!
Have doves started appearing in your life or in your dreams? This gentle bird typically represents peace, love, renewal, and spirituality. Read on to learn more about dove symbolism and what it means if you see this bird often.
"Doves are often seen as symbols of peace, spirituality, hope, renewal, transformation, and love," explains Johanna Aúgusta, numerologist and owner of the Ministry of Numerology. "They can also represent compassion and kindness to others during difficult transitions."
And if you've ever wondered why doves are often released at weddings and ceremonies, it's because they represent love, too. "Doves mate for life and are considered a symbol of lasting love," says Harmon-Luber.
Seeing two doves together is usually a sign of good luck in the love and relationships department. If you're in a relationship, it could show you that all is well. If you're single and looking, it could symbolize that love is on its way.
According to Charlotte Kirsten, M.A., a cultural symbolism expert and psychological astrologer, "The famous Cheyenne proverb, 'If a man is as wise as a serpent, he can afford to be as harmless as a dove,' illustrates this. For certain tribes, a dove's feathers are worn as protective talismans, believed to ward off evil spirits and offer spiritual protection in times of adversity."
"In China, doves are symbols of enduring love, faithfulness, and eternal bonds, both romantically and platonically speaking," explains Kirsten. "Male doves are believed to help their female partners incubate and care for their young, which further bolsters their image as devoted, caring birds."
"White doves embody the meaning of purity, peace, love, and connection with the Divine," says Harmon-Luber. A white dove also represents innocence, explains Kirsten. "It not only encourages us to rise above what hurts us, but it reminds us to connect with the inner child within and tap into that ever-expanding childlike curiosity and joy."
"A gray dove represents the bridge between the old paradigm and the new," says Kirsten. "[A gray dove] often appears when we're at a standstill in our lives and need to release ourselves from self-imposed limitations." According to Aúgusta, gray doves can also represent love and partnership.
A "fruit dove" is a rare type of multicolored dove native to Southeast Asia and Oceania. "These birds are fiercely territorial and are always on high alert for other species invading their space," says Kirsten. She explains that they can stress themselves out by being so "on" all the time. "Seeing any multicolored dove acts as a gentle reminder to let go of imaginary fears," she adds, as well as surrender the need for control.
"Doves remind us that we have the opportunity to be fully present in every moment and to choose inner peace," says Harmon-Luber. "When a dove appears, we're reminded to practice mindfulness [and] find opportunities for cultivating presence and inner peace."
Doves also remind us to pay attention to synchronicities from the spirit world. Similar to owls, doves are considered to be messengers from divine or spiritual realms. "For centuries, doves were used as messenger birds, and their excellent navigational skills meant that they could roam hundreds of miles from home and still find their way back," adds Kirsten.
"In dreams, doves represent tapping into one's own intuition as well as the emotional language of others to find inner balance, healing, peace, and joy," says Kirsten. "You're more likely to see a dove in a dream state when something is weighing on your mind, especially where relationships are concerned." She explains that dreaming of a dove may represent that "not all is lost" in a relationship.
The color of the dove will also influence the meaning of the dream, just like in waking life. To help you with your dream interpretation, Aúgusta offers up what different colors of doves may symbolize in your dream:
So, what does it mean when a dove visits you over and over again? "If you are seeing doves everywhere, the universe is trying to get your attention!" explains Harmon-Luber. The message might be to have a more gentle or loving demeanor or may offer confirmation that you're progressing on your spiritual path, she says. Seeing doves can also be a reminder "to listen to your intuition and embrace your feminine side."
It's important to consider how you feel and what you're thinking about the next time you see a dove. "Pay attention to what thoughts pop up when seeing these doves. This will give you a good indicator as to what message or opportunity you were meant to connect with," says Kirsten.
Birds, insects, and animals can come into our lives to bring us valuable messages and information. Seeing a dove is a symbol of love, hope, renewal, and trust as well as being connected to other realms.

But most important, she needs to recognize and accept the picture-perfect romance that is right in front of her!
In Greek mythology, the dove symbolizes Aphrodite, the goddess of love. This coincides with Mesopotamian myth, which touts doves as conduits of carnal love, sexuality, and war. In the Islam religion, doves hold a special significance, as they were said to have assisted the prophet Muhammed. And in Japan, the image of a dove with a sword represents the end of war.
