16.5x Zoom Video of Dove using Elcan Scope.

The purpose of this video is obviously not to suggest shooting a dove with a rifle, but rather just showing how on a deer hunt, you might use the scope to photograph or video other animals you encounter. If you back off to 9x or 11x Zoom, the image quality improves greatly. A dove is a small video target at 70 yards, but imagine a coyote, fox or a management buck.

not illegal, you can shoot any non-game or non-native species at night, for example, coyote, bobcat, hog, axis, fallow, sika, any ram other than Desert Big Horn (which has other restrictions also.)

You can not shoot animals like whitetail, pronghorn, mule, turkey, dove, quail, duck, geese at night.

This is a very high level summary, there are specific details on the Texas Parks & Wildlife Website.
