1st known record of this species in the lower 48/mainland North America. Originally spotted on 10/15/22 around 10:30am by a birder. More reports came in on 10/16/22. I drove up on 10/17/22 and started looking around 11:07am. Was located by fellow birders around 12:40pm. Was extremely active and did not sit still for more than a few seconds. Was flying between trees feeding. Eventually flew off around 12:55pm.
Relocated the individual a block away in a eucalyptus tree around 2:00pm. Still extremely active and appeared to be feeding. Eventually flew off and wasn’t relocated before I left.
Die Stadttaube hat eine Körperlänge von 31 bis 34 cm und ein Gewicht von 240 bis 380 g. Die Färbung ähnelt sehr der Felsentaube. Ansonsten treten auch weißgrau gemusterte, einheitlich dunkelgraue oder dunkelbraune, rotgraue oder dunkel gescheckte Farbvarianten auf.
Не понимаю что за птица на 5 6 13 16 20-25 27 28-32 34-36 39 40 секундах. Частично вроде перекрывается с зеленушкой, но не всё похоже. Мерлин определяет как Южного (западного) соловья, по записям отчасти похоже, но понятно что навряд ли.
