Which bird is mentioned in the bible more than any other? Answer Turtle Dove over 50 times! I find it amazing and heart-warming that these wonderful birds have been celebrated as part of our cultural heritage for so long. Losing them completely would be a damning verdict on our generation especially when we are living in an age of increased environmental awareness.
