New bird in town?
I was raised in Manchester where there were tons on grey pigeons around our tenement. I mean everywhere. They were pretty cool to watch and to chase as well.
So this evening there was a winged blast from my past on my beach on Braun Bay. After more than sixty years on the Lake this is a new one to me. It had a blue band on it's left leg and maybe it was a carrier pigeon or on some kind of race bird. Any ideas? Misty Blue |

We recently were visited by a mourning dove at our place on East Bear Island. Have never seen one here before. Welcome! 🐻

We see lots in Coral Gables. Possibly a coincidence, but we saw one this morning on Long Island. This is the first one I recall seeing here.

We suggested that it visit Long Island on its tour. 🐻

Migration Time...

Somehow, there are many more birds here—at the end of Summer—than ever seen this past Spring! :eek2: The treetops are full of songbirds, so this must be the start of their annual migration. (Which reminds me—I have to pack!) ;) |
