I saw the first ones here in Nebraska about 6 years ago. I had never heard of them, but the fellow whose yard they flew into knew what they were. Same story, they like town and buildings better than out in the country. My grandson and I were dove hunting in the sandhills of Nebraska this fall, and he shot two in a single shot. They are about half again as big as a mourning dove.
If the regulations are still in effect, the season is from January 1 through December 31. There are getting to be more and more of them.
