COBirders, Continuing with the thread about dove plumages, this morning a dark White-winged Dove showed up in my back yard. I have posted four images of it, along with "normal" plumaged WWDOs for comparison, at https://www.flickr.com/photos/brightsfotos/17190967131/. Note in two of the photos there is a Mourning Dove perched on top of the board fence. My apology for the sub-par photos-I didn't have my camera set properly.
A couple of years ago on COBirds there was a question about Eurasian-collared Doves in Colorado which prompted me to do an Internet search. There I saw many photos of ECDOs in England whose plumages varied almost as much as those of urbanized Rock Pigeons. Will that be a trend among some dove species in Colorado?
