Description The shot is remarkable only for the softness of the light, which suits the nature of the mourning dove. She had not seen me hiding, but heard the shutter rapid-fire, and then with whistling wings, took flight. Taken in Kansas.

I like the pose you have captured as she is about to take flight and the lighting is beautiful.

Even the lowly dove has her moments of beauty.  If she were a girl she would likely consider herself a wallflower.
