VARIATION OF ROCK DOVES, BLUFFER'S PARK, SCARBOROUGH, TORONTO, ON

  We thought these two photos of Rock Doves or Feral Pigeons were interesting because of the great difference in their coloration.  The only things they seem to have in common are their pink legs and white cere (upper part of the bill which contains the bird's nostrils).  All Rock Doves have these.
