The white wings have been moving northward pretty rapidly over the past few years. 2 years ago, white wings were very rare here in the Austin area. Last year I saw a few, shot one. Now, they seem to outnumber the mourning doves. Yes, this year is different from years past. I'm hoping TPWD ups the limit on them this year.puma guy wrote:Hope everyone has a successful hunt. I have a question for any one here. What's the northern range of white wings? I haven't dove hunted in decades and we only had mourning doves in the area we hunted but I've seen them visiting The Valley. I have a deer lease west of New Braunfels that sees some mourning dove activity, but I saw something I'd never seen last month while I was up there working. We jumped a pair of white wing doves while we walked to one of the feeders. I have never ever seen them there before. I like to "bird watch" while I hunt and when I am outdoors, so it's not likely I'd have missed them in past years.
