Rain Crow

by Jenny Serbes
(Lithia springs, Ga.)

I have lived in northwestern Georgia all
my life and my father and grandfather
referred to the mourning dove as the
"rain crow". Because of their mournful
cry, they believed it was calling for
rain. I would be interested to know if
others are familiar with this term in regard to this beautiful bird.
