My comment was that doves and killdees look a lot alike when flying over a
dove
field when you are hunting them. If being a birder means you are in the
same
situation, fine. But if it means you are watching them from a distance,
usually
with binoculars, it has nothing to do with my statement that killdees and
doves
look almost exactly alike when you are hunting on a dove field.

I've never hunted and don't even know what a "dove field" is. So I'll limit
my observation about the non-resemblance to my experience of viewing them
both with and without binoculars in a variety of situations while birding.
