Hey, I have what looks like a Common Ground Dove hybrid with a Eurasian Collared Dove.. but can't find anything that would suggest that they have hybridized.. although it seems like it could happen 😮 Anybody hear of this? I can't find anything on it. This Dove had a longer tail and non-descript markings of the Eurasian minus the Coller, with a red beak black tip and black eyes. ? I will take photos of it tomorrow.. if anyone wants to see it or think they might have a clue.

While taking a photo with the phone Merlin app.. I was jokingly saying it would come back as a Seagull due to the beak.. LOL And you know what? It did.. as a Mew Gull 😮 haha OK, second bird was the Banded Pigeon.. but it's a far cry from either.

Let me know what you all think. I don't believe I'm allowed to post a photo here.. maybe I'll put one on my empty Instagram page? For you to look at.. otherwise it will have to be by phone.
