We played the dove game by slowly walking up the trail (given the high altitude, I couldn’t walk faster anyways) and looked for them from better spots. It would take more than simply looking from the parking lot to see these beautiful montane birds. That was alright with us, we understood shy birds, we could play by their rules.
