Looking at pictures on line of the two different spicies they are not Morning Doves I was seeing but the Eurasian Collard Doves that are up here . Three years ago was the first time I saw the first breeding pair,this year there was at least 20 breeding pairs just out side of town where I live this summer and how many more are in the surrounding area with all of the grain fields in the area. I have not seen any of them for the last month so i'm guessing they have migrated south for the winter..
That is the same timeline that they showed up here in Trail.
