I saw ONE flight of about 30 birds last weekend, other than that I saw quite a few birds in groups of 5 or less and lots of singles and pairs.

Man, I was seeing TONS of doves on my commute everyday across the metroplex and when it rained recently, they all left the next day. I mean I haven't seen a SINGLE dove, until this morning I saw a couple mourning dove. I'll be curious to see what showed up today on my way to work in the morning.
