Description

Raising baby birds is a lot of work. You might think that after seeing off their fledged young ones, bird parents would call it a day.

Mourning Doves have been seen trying to raise six clutches of eggs in one season!More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.
