White-winged Dove in Manitoba
I will return to posting about Peru as soon as possible but can’t resist adding a couple of quick posts first. A White-winged Dove showed up in Great Falls, Manitoba on 10th November. This is an extreme rarity this far north and represents, more or less, the fifth record for this province (including a couple of unconfirmed reports). Thanks to the remarkable generosity of Heather and Paul Softley, many people got to see this subtly beautiful bird. Here are a few souvenirs…
This bird is quite a bit out of range I believe.I hope to get back to birding and photography soon,now that the memorial service for my dear Jake is over.The past month and a half have been difficult.
