Thanks, I used them in an Indian butter chicken dish. No leftovers. Was able to shoot a limit yesterday as well. 3 banded birds 2 of which had reward bands. Best opener for me ever.

There is a melanistic dove in a group out here by my house. Looks dark slate/blue colored and is with a regular colored mate. Can't seem to get a pic of it. It's always taking off when I go by.
