Mourning doves - I don't have any dense evergreen cover here so maybe they only come over here to eat when they can't find corn. Usually I'll see 6 or 8 of them up on the wire in the backyard or waddling around under the feeder.
Sally - oyster soup? I make a Polish Easter soup for Christmas Eve - I know, out of synch but I don't necessarily care for all things Polish. This one starts with sausage cooked in water, then add flour, an egg, sour cream, sugar and vinegar. Can't taste the sour cream but my kids love the sweet/sour flavor (which is probably incorrect balance according to tradition) but I never have any leftovers. Garnish with chopped cooked potato or chopped boiled eggs. Good for cold, sore throat or stuffy sinuses.
