Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description | And so here it is, a close view of one of the ubiquitous and scavenging Rock Pigeons, freeloading in the Mandarin Duck enclosure. This cheeky chap is perched majestically atop the Mandarin Duck's water cup. Wild Rock Doves are pale grey with two black bars on each wing, although domestic and feral pigeons are very variable in colour and pattern. There are few visible differences between males and females.The species is generally monogamous, with two squeakers (young) per brood. Both parents care for the young for a time. Habitats include various open and semi-open environments. Cliffs and rock ledges are used for roosting and breeding in the wild. Originally found wild in Europe, North Africa, and western Asia, feral pigeons have become established in cities around the world. The species is abundant, with an estimated population of several million. (Butterworth, Penang, Nov. 2013) |
