                One of my sons (17 at the time) was hunting about 100 yards down this hedgerow from me. He had shot few but he started acting weird. Kept walking over and picking up this one dove. He would look at it then look at me with a strange look on his face. When I walked down to him he holds up a banded dove and says what is this? I started laughing and just shaking my head. I had never even seen one.

                  the first dove I ever shot was in 1954 and it was the first day I was allowed to hunt. My dad bought me a used 16 gauge single shot and the first day of the season, I sneaked up on a dove drinking out of a pot hole in the North Cow Boyou Creek and shot it and it had a band. My mother sent it in to the feds and they sent a letter back that it had been banded that spring in Lousiana.

                    Killed a white wing a few years back. Came from San Antonio which is about 2 hours from where I am.

                              I've shot one. It was banded in Fort Hayes, KS 800 miles from where I shot it.
