James Ha asked about the status of Band-tailed Pigeons (BTPI):

I didn't participate in the prior discussion of BTPI - but I would like to
mention that my neighbor has had a pair in her "forested" Seattle backyard
(pretty nice of her to provide good forest habitat for the birds and me to
enjoy :-) for the two years I've been in this house; and last week there
were *five* in my mountain ash.
