Hi COBirders, Sitting in back at 7:30 am, enjoying the cool air and watching jays fighting over peanuts - a White-Winged Dove flew in and landed on the fence about 20' away. While it was checking out the feeders another one was calling a couple of yards down. After about 10 minutes it flew off through the houses.
I have only had WW Doves twice before here - both times in November. Also had male Calliope Hummingbird, and first yard male Black-chinned Hummingbird. I've had female Black-chinneds, and a hatch-year male - but hadn't seen a bright purple-throated male here. Good birding, Steve brown Colorado Springs (Mountain Shadows - about 3 blocks from ABA) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
