The last several years I see them all year around here in Nor-Cal. They don't seem to have the same problem with cold, wet weather as the Mourning Doves do and don't bail for warmer climates, but hang around all year.
I even saw quite a few of them over at Tulelake this March, at 4500' elevation, with snow on the ground and temperatures getting down into the teens at night.
