hey Tom,
here along the upper SC coast, the species seem to separate themselves. in
one area, it was interesting to see ECDO, MODO and Common Ground-dove sorted
out at intervals alongside the road.
in south Louisiana in winter, i observed my "lifer" White-winged Dove
foraging and perching with a mixed group of MODO and ECDO. but in so. LA in
winter one can see a number of tremulous things.
your mileage may vary.
