Subject: [ValleyNature] all-white rock pigeon in Windsor behaving =
weirdly
Louis Coutinho in Windsor reported this afternoon at abourt 4 p.m.:
This bird has sat in the same spot [on power-line] for over an hour =
while I observed it and I understand from neighbours that it just stayed =
around nearby at their homes for the whole day. It looks to me like an =
albino rock dove but its beak is a little smaller than most rock doves. =
Does this look like any other bird to you other than an albino rock =
dove?
Your thoughts?
Louis
[Louis sent me several photos of this white pigeon, and I could not =
see whether there were any leg bands. Can anyone recall where to report =
rock pigeons that are both coloured unusually and behaving weirdly? -- =
quite possibly some pigeon-fancier's private pigeon? I can send the =
photos to anyone who requests them off-list.
Cheers from Jim in Wolfville.
