1^st Round

2nd Round

11/29/08.
Cliff Weisse -- Accept

Description and photos include field marks that confirm the identification.

Cliff Weisse--Accept

I'm voting to accept one bird, the one with the dark undertail coverts in the photos. Since the other bird with visible undertail coverts has whitish coverts I'm not sure what to make of it. It's probably just natural variation, or perhaps an artifact of the photo, but I don't know how to be sure so I don't think we should accept it.

Sturts -- Reject, specific identification not established

The birds in the pictures are very pale and the undertail coverts look white to me. Possibly it is the light the pictures were taken in. The similar Ring-Turtle-Dove is not elminated in the write-up.

12-16-2008.
Sturts--Accept

After studying the photo some more I'm changing my vote to accept.

chuck trost -- Accept

The photo with black on the edge of the vent was convincing.

chuck trost--Accept

Convincing description.

3 December 2008.
Hardy -- Accept

Photos show diagnostic undertail pattern.

16 December 2008.
Hardy--Accept

The undertail coverts look darker than the white undertail on the left bird in the first photo, and the bird in the second photo.

12-04-2008.
Darren Clark -- Accept

Photographs show Eurasian Collared-Doves

12-17-2008.
Darren Clark--Accept

Others have expressed concern about the lightness of the under-tail. I think it's an artifact of lighting/exposure. I'm comfortable accepting both birds as Eurasian Collared-Dove.

12-09-2008.
Doug Ward -- Accept

No question of identification. Should probably be considered as a continuous poplation with record 106-B-07.

12-31-2008.
Doug Ward--Accept

Photos diagnostic.

12-12-2008.
Dave Trochlell--Accept

The documentation was very convincing.

12-20-2008.
Dave Trochlell--Accept

I'm still convinced.
