This morning (July 29) at 10 a.m. Harold and I saw the white winged  
dove at Rachel Cooper's home in Delhaven. It was exactly where she  
said it would be, sitting on top of the bird feeder on her deck. We  
drove into her driveway and the bird was sitting there waiting for us!

On the roof of her home sat a merlin, while another merlin loudly  
flew about the neighbour's yard. The white winged dove and mourning  
doves did not seem to be fearful of the falcon. Also seen from the  
yard in the very short time we were there: bank swallows,  
hummingbirds, flicker, cedar waxwing, blue jays, and a chipmunk.

Thank you Rachel for letting us know about this rare bird. I had not  
seen one until today, Harold has found a nest, in Arizona!
