! Passenger pigeons, migrating bird
of the past, are absolutely extinct.
Travelling In such myriads, they at
] time obscured the sun, this in their
spring and fall flights to and from
! their feeding and nesting grounds.
| Within, the last half century the wild
pigeon was considered table delicacy
which would never become extinct and
always be with us. Today there is
not one live specimen in the United
States, the last Of the Ectopistes mi
gratorius died in the Geological Gar
dens at Cincinnati few years ago.
We now have with us a blood rela-
ton of the passenger pigeon, tinctured
with consanguineous relations SO
closely, that we may declare the Zenal-
dura macroura carolinonsis or mourn
ing dove first cousin smaller in size
and lacking the rich rusty brown on
the breast, they are seldom found in
fiocks of more than six or eight, usu-
ally In pairs, nesting and roosting any
where in the woods. In general con-
tour they very much resemble the old
passenger bird and are considered
treat Dy epicures, especially when en-
cased in a Well-made pot pie.
Not Same Variety.
The turtle dove is confused with and
reported by many as the wild pigeon,
those who have hunted and killed the
latter bird have no trouble to distin-
guish between the two varieties. The
mourning dove breeds throughout the
United States and southern Canada,
except northern New England and the
Provinces. Specializing in Georgia
and Alabama as permanent head
quarters.
1t requires especial skill to kill a
sufficient number of doves on pass
or feeding field, to reach the ligeal
limit or even bring to bag a sufficient
number for plethoric pot pie max
ings" No winged messenger has the
number of cork screw dives. dips or
coasting capers in their feathered sys-
TENS l have seen displayed by mourn
ing doves as they volplane into a
water hole or feeding field.
Shooting Skill Needed.
A seasoned shooter has his atten-
ton called to angles, dips, towers and
frills on each and every hunt that he
has never seen befor. Every innova-
ton in fight introduced requires new
computations. angle leads and rapid
ity of action, which do not always
spell success in shooting. A double !
made when doves are at their best and
coming over the top, means shooting
skill. You are transgressing shooting !
