Also:
Sable, three doves argent, beaked and membered gules, each holding on 
olive-branch proper. -- the resulting doves are instead beaked and membered 
sable (or mutilated, if that be.) Olive branch is frequently held by doves, it 
would be useful to add support for them.
  Argent, a civic crown or wreath of oak acorned proper, on a chief azure a serpent nowed or, and a dove of the field respecting each other.
  Per fesse azure and argent, a pale counterchanged, three doves of the last, each holding in his beak an olive-branch or. (Placement is probably a neat task here.)
  Argent, a cross azure between three ring-doves vert beaked and legged gules. (Ring-dove then.)
  Gules, on a fesse argent, between three doves proper, as many crosses formé of the field. (This shows the "proper" of the doves; currently, they are properly beaked and membered sable by the program, which they should not be. A detection needs to be considered in which cases are they to be membered and beaked gules, since the example of Albery would be then giving mutilated doves without that.)
  Vairy argent and sable, two bars or; on a chief of the last three dove-cots gules. (Dove-cots, apparently, also a charge.)
  Sable, three dove-houses argent.
  Argent, a chevron between three turtle-doves azure. (... or two, between them a partridge in a pear tree proper. Naw.)
  Or, on a mullet sable a pigeon argent. (seems you can place things on mullets. The program does not, yet.)
  Argent, three pigeons azure.

"Dove:" the dove is very frequent device; sometimes the "turtle dove" and 
sometimes the "ringed dove" are specially mentioned. And also with the dove may 
be grouped the "pigeon," with its fellows the "stock-dove" and "wood-pigeon." 
It is said to have been adopted as an emblem of purity, and sometimes it 
appears as the "Holy Dove." The dove is subjected to the usual terms expressing 
position, &c., applicable to birds, but the more frequent are "volant," 
"close," "rising," and often having an olive-branch or some sprig in the mouth, 
and in one case "displayed in a glory," and also "nimbed." It may be, of 
course, also "membered," "legged," "beaked," "billed," &c., of a different 
tincture.
  The dove very frequently occurs in the arms granted to bishops, and sometimes it is used evidently for the sake of the name.
  "Dove-cot," or "dove-house" is represented usually as in the attached images, but some other forms may be found.

Some nice images here. There is already a "dove" but it isn't very good (looks 
like a skinny duck!). Will work through these as time permits.
