Park pigeons
Our local park duck pond has changed over the summer from having a large flock of Canada Gees to these pigeons.
Even though we know them here as Feral Pigeons they are in fact really Rock Doves (Columba livia) that have in fact interbred for centuries and are native to coastal cliffs and rocky ledges in Europe, North Africa and Asia but have adapted to urban environments where tall buildings, bridges and ledges mimic their natural nesting sites.
These pigeons seen in flight fly as a coordinated flock, banking and turning together, and can adjust their wingbeat timing when flying close to one another. They display a variety of grey, blue-grey, mottled, and dark wing-bar patterns typical of urban and racing pigeon populations
Ps we have common wood pigeons in our garden (some 2.5 miles from here)
