Here is Surprise, AZ (Phoenix essentially). We usually go to a place called Robins Butte for the dove, it's way west of Phoenix close to Gila Bend. There were some grain fields that some old man used to maintain and they would bring the birds in by the droves. Once he dided, the fields were taken over by AZ Mame and Squish (AZ Game and Fish) and they went to pot. Birds disapeared. Two years ago, we discovered an area where we used to go duck hunting in the winter when the river was running. We were up to our armpits in dove. The next year, the farmers closed off the fields claiming there were exclusive to the local hunting club now.
I haven't shot a dove in two years now.

Here hoping for duck season. Gotta get me some birds.
