Mourning Dove Calls

The mourning dove in my yard makes a strange call. Coo ca coo coo.. very fast. Like Morse code. I've never heard one make this call. It is NOT like any of the calls listed. She sits on top of the power pole making this call all day.
I live in SC near the NC state line and have mourning doves all spring and summer and into the fall season.
On second thought maybe it's an owl. I've heard and seen Mourning Doves here before. They sound similar but after reading it seems they come out in the daytime.
In DFW ( Texas) I can hear a Mourning Dove right now at 3:05am. I haven't heard one in a long time maybe about two years. I love the sound and this one started at 12am.
Heard a mourning dove this day February 16, 2023. Pindall, Arkansas. Seems a tad early, but then our groundhog did not see it's shadow
I live in S.W. Colorado 20 miles east of Durango,Co
I live in Smyrna, GA. I have mourning doves in my yard every day. I have lost a dear friend recently and I find their presence comforting. I put out bird seed for the birds and squirrels, so I have lots of visitors to my yard! The mourning doves are always in pairs and they will stand and look at me as I look at them from the window.
Like another commenter I live in the Pacific Northwest, however I see them pretty regularly. Well, I hear them but when I do I look for them. They nested in the fencing and rock area of the store I worked at and when I was there really early in the morning they were all you would hear.. I find their song so relaxing.

I live in upper Manhattan, in Washington Heights, near the Hudson. I’d been hearing mourning doves for the first time here - and this morning, around 6:45, one of them flew onto a windowsill next to where I was sitting and gave me an intimate view and concert!
