Rock Dove

Rock dove

The Rock Dove (Columba livia), includes the domesticated domestic pigeon, and escaped populations of domestic pigeons that gave rise to the urban pigeon. The Rock Dove has its natural range along the coast of Scotland, locally in Ireland, the Faroe Islands, in western and southern Europe, North Africa, the Arabian Peninsula and South Asia, as far east as India.

Mountain Plover

The Mountain Plover (Charadrius montanus) is unlike most plovers, usually not found near bodies of water or even on wet soil; it prefers dry habitat with short grass and bare ground. It breeds in the high plains of North America from extreme southeastern Alberta and southwestern Saskatchewan to northern New Mexico and the Texas panhandle, as well as an isolated site in the Davis Mountains of West Texas. About 85 percent of the population winters in the San Joaquin and Imperial Valleys in California. Its winter range also extends along the U.S.-Mexican border, more extensively on the Mexican side.

There are a few isolated populations that nest on high mountain peaks south of the Arctic region, including the Cairngorm in central Scotland and Saint Elias Mountains on the southern boundary between Alaska and the Yukon. The entire world population is migratory birds, except the population of Iceland, and they move to northern temperate regions.

Great egret

Great egret

The great egret (Ardea alba), also known as the common egret, large egret or (in the Old World) great white heron, is a large, widely distributed egret. Distributed across most of the tropical and warmer temperate regions of the world, in southern Europe it is rather localized. In North America it is more widely distributed, and it is ubiquitous across the Sun Belt of the United States and in the Neotropics
