    Been here in So Cal for quite some time. If you hunt dove, they are awesome. As far as habitat/pressure on other birds are concerned, they don't seem to be causing any issues. They don't compete with the mourning or white-wings, so I'm all for them. They taste great too. There is debate that they are filling the ecological niche left by the Passenger Pigeon.

    Interesting fact- Though they rarely do, they are capable of cross breeding with Rock Dove (common pigeon). Generally only happens when you keep them penned up together.

        This is interesting. I have been noticing them here in San Diego. My house is near a network of canyons and a pair come to my backyard to feed daily from the bird feeder leavings.

                  I have a nesting pair at my house and a bunch at my dove spot in Livermore. First year I've seen them. They're nice and big.

                      I've been out to the IV once this week and twice last week. Was working. Drove around completely around the sea two of the times. Kinda disappointed saw more pigeons than euros. Bit I did see some, as mentioned before talk to the cattle guys. And stick close to structure if possible.

                        We killed quite a few here in/around Bakersfield last year. I noticed that they were back in town about 4 weeks ago. Didn't see any from late fall till spring.
