Doves are categorized as\u00a0Legal Game Birds,\u00a0Unprotected Species or\u00a0Protected (Not Hunted).\u00a0There are seven species of doves and pigeons indigenous to Texas, of which only three (mourning dove, white-winged dove, and white-tipped dove) are categorized as &#8220;Legal Game Birds&#8221; and can be\u00a0hunted. Two species (red-billed pigeon and band-tailed pigeon) are currently listed as legal game birds by federal and state regulations but are not hunted in Texas due to limited numbers and distribution (categorized as unprotected species). Two other species (Inca dove and common ground-dove) are sparrow-sized birds and are categorized as &#8220;Protected&#8221; and therefore not hunted.<\/p>\n<p>The Dove in this image is a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.audubon.org\/field-guide\/bird\/white-winged-dove\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">White-winged Dove<\/a>\u00a0and therefore a &#8220;Legal Game Bird&#8221;.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5894\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5894\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/20160107-Pedernales-Falls-Birding-152-Edit.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5894\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"5894\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2016\/01\/dove\/dove-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/20160107-Pedernales-Falls-Birding-152-Edit.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;6.3&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
