For many yrs, I have noted my FOS mourning dove in mid-February (excluding ones I may find in semi-hidden places in the winter...rare). Then, nothing for 2-3 weeks, then mourning doves are fairly easily seen. I have no idea why I just see this single individual, then nothing for the next 2-3 weeks. Karl Stecher Aurora/Arapahoe

I saw it only from the underside and briefly, nowhere near enough time to get a photo. I noticed it was not large (some Collared Doves get pretty big), it had a white tipped tail (like a Collared Dove or White-winged, unlike Mourning Dove). It also had a thin, dainty neck and head (like Mourning or White winged, unlike Collared). I just wanted to give anyone birding there a heads up on a possible White winged Dove. Based on the description, does it sound like it could be a White winged Dove?
