A dove is a small, gentle bird known for its soft cooing sounds and peaceful nature. Often associated with love and harmony, doves are commonly seen in parks and gardens. They have a plump body, short neck, and a small head, making them easily recognizable. Many people enjoy watching doves as they gracefully flutter around, searching for seeds and grains to eat. In various cultures, the dove symbolizes hope and purity. For example, in the story of Noah's Ark, a dove was sent out to find land after the flood, returning with an olive branch as a sign of peace. This imagery has made doves popular symbols in art and literature, representing tranquility and new beginnings.
