Good News for Dove Hunters

There’s good news for dove hunters who are looking forward to that opening day of dove season September first.  A rainy spring has sprouted lots more sunflowers and seeds across the Texas landscape bringing 30-million mourning doves into the state. Biologists say dove numbers have increased over last year as much as 20 percent which is good news for both veteran hunters and those who are new to the sport. Texas Parks and Wildlife has this report.
