The term "cote" for a group of doves originates from the Old French word "cote," meaning a shelter or enclosure for animals. Historically, doves were often kept in coops or cotes for domestication and breeding. The association of the word with these birds likely arose from their common presence in such enclosures. Hence, a group of doves came to be referred to as a cote.
