Earlier this week I noticed some new birds in my feeder area. I rarely see these birds around. I think they are just passing through the area.
Photographs taken on 26 January 2020.

Three Eurasian Collared-Doves were perched in the Indian Magic Flowering Crabapple Tree.

To give you a better picture of the Eurasian Collared-Dove I used my software to zoom in on one of the birds in the previous photo.

I have never seen one of these at my feeder, although the map shows that I am exactly on the line of their range in extreme South Central Wisconsin. Maybe I will see one someday! Great photos and thanks for posting to #featheredfriends! !Tip

Eurasian Collared-Doves are not a native species to North America. I do not see them all the time. I typically see them once a year or so.
The birds are more skittish than Mourning Doves. I was surprised that I saw one during the weekend for my bird count.
Steem on,
Mike

They seem to be survivors, don't they? I will keep better watch for them. I probably just assume that all my visitors are Mourning Doves.

They haven't left for warmer weather yet. And the temperatures this weekend are supposed to get well above freezing.
I saw the same group of three Eurasian Collared-Doves in the feeder area today. If the doves stick around for the weekend, they will make it into my bird counts.
Have a great day!
Steem on,
Mike

Apparently it's a family, I imagine the pigeon is the biggest.
Al parecer es una familia, imagino el pichón es el más grande.

Yes, the pigeon is much larger than any of the doves I see.
Have a great day!
