We arrived home last night from a birding trip to Idaho. As I write this there 30-40 Band-tailed Pigeons in the trees in back of the house. (I count 30 on this side the trees so who knows how many on the other side).

We are searching for the White-winged Dove but have not seen it this morning but that doesn't mean it isn't out there. The day we saw it, it was low and Band-tailed usually sit high in the evergreens and then different levels in the deciduous trees. It also would feed on the ground which the others do not do.

I will post if and when I see it and you will be welcome to come and try to view it too.
