Check for embryos by candeling them(placing a light on the egg) and if they are still alive incubate them.
I'm also caring for an abandoned pigeon egg. You must see if your egg is fertile first buy putting it under a light and see if there is a fetus inside there should be some veins in a group around a dark or white spot and you can see it move as you turn the egg.most abandoned eggs are unfertile and the mom pushed it out. If it's fertile you must keep it under some sort of heat all the time! Turn it at least 2 or 3 times a day so the baby doesnt get stuck to 1 side! It takes about 2 weeks or 18-19 days for a pigeon egg to hatch. When it does hatch it will be small,bald,and blind. You must feed it every 45 minutes that includes night time...that is the bad part no sleep! The formula for a baby pigeon or any baby bird is usually dog/cat food soacked, a hard boiled egg 1fourth applesause and vitamins all mixed up like oatmeal with flat tip tweezers or something like that. They can't swallow for themselves so you have to stick it a small bit past their throat or they will choke and die. Once the baby has all it's feathers you can teach it to fly by putting it on your arm and moving your arm up and down which will encourage them to flap their wings and I just after awhile push them off onto a bed or something or they might jump off themselves. Get them used to being wild get a bucket of worms and have them play with it they might dig up a worm and eat it that's good.If you cannot compleat these tasks give it to a vet or don't try.There is a 40% chance of the bird dying while its a newborn so don't give your hopes up.
If you found it on the ground, it may not be abandoned... many doves lay their eggs in ground nests that don't look much like nests at all. The best thing to do is to just leave it. If it is really lost, the mother dove may come back to retrieve it.
leave it ! geese some times leave the eggs for a few minutes to get water or food they are all ways very close by But if there is no sign of a goose and the egg is not in a nest i would take it and inkubate it in a inkubater.
I just recently had 2 dove eggs that were abandoned.. . 1. put a flashlight under them. if you see a black figure, then there is something growing inside. if not, put them in a bag and then into the trash :( 2. keep them in an incubator at 100 degrees and turn them three times a day. 3. if you don't have an incubator, they should be okay outside in a nest during the day, but it will be too cold at night.

Mourning doves would be a bit big for screech owls, and they usually focus on insects, reptiles, and small mammals. But if given the opportunity, I imagine that one might take on and eat a mourning dove, particularly if it is injured.

No. First, a human scent would now be on the baby. Most likely it would kill it or push it out of the nest, but it won't take care of it.
