The dove was the most gentle of birds. Whatever they felt and however Jesus presented himself - this was the imagery - the gentle dove.

Not an actual dove descending.
They seen the Holy Ghost that look like fire,it we not fire,It looked like tongues of fire.Yes the Holy Ghost looked like a dove too.Old testement God looked like a burning bush.He can look like anything.He has the power.
