Washington and Iron Co Eurasian Collared-Doves



Yesterday (Sat. 11 Jan.) the Washington City Eurasian Collared-Doves were seen again. Six or seven were along 100 East at the south end just south of 400 South. This is the area they seem to be hanging around the most lately. Up to 14 have been seen here.
 
Also ones first found on the Cedar City CBC were seen again today (Sun. 12 Jan.) Six were along Midvalley Rd. at around the fifth house west of the Minersville Hwy. in Cedar Valley.
 
Eurasian Collared-Doves seem to be increasing rapidly in the west. I learned yesterday that flocks of 40-50 are being found around the Salton Sea in Southern Calif. Please document all sightings of this species as it is most likely that any seen anywhere are birds which are part of this rapidly expanding species across North America.
