167. Extinction: The Story Of The Passenger Pigeon The early Europeans in North America frequently commented on the huge numbers of blue, longtailed, fast and graceful pigeons in the country. http://www.eco-action.org/dt/pigeon.html

Species Extinction The Story of the Passenger Pigeon By Clive Ponting Probably the most terrible example of mass slaughter in the history of wildlife was not the bison but the passenger pigeon - a story that almost defies belief. The early Europeans in North America frequently commented on the huge numbers of blue, long-tailed, fast and graceful pigeons in the country. One of the first settlers in Virginia wrote that, `There are wild pigeons in winter beyond number or imagination, myself have seen three or four hours together flocks in the air, so thick that even have they shadowed the sky from us.' Similar reports can be found from the Dutch on Manhattan Island in 1625, from Salem in Massachusetts in 1631 and some of the first explorers in Louisiana in 1698. As late as 1854 in Wayne County, New York, a local resident wrote that. `There would be days and days when the air was alive with them, hardly a break occurring in the flocks for half a day at a time. Flocks stretched as far as a person could see, one tier above another.' On 8 April 1873 at Saginaw in Michigan there was a continuous stream of passenger pigeons overhead between 7.30 in the morning and 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Other reports describe flocks a mile wide flying overhead for four or five hours at a time during their migration in the early spring from the south to their breeding areas in New England, New York, Ohio and the southern Great Lakes area. The flocks were so thickly packed that a single shot could bring down thirty or forty birds and many were killed simply by hitting them with pieces of wood as they flew over hilltops.

Welcome to Engle Lofts! Click pictures for larger view Hello my name is Todd Engle. I live in the small town of Mount Washington Kentucky, just south of Louisville. Above are pictures of my loft. I have had pigeons for the last 15 years now. I started out raising show rollers, but there isn’t much interest in this area for them. Although I still have one pair of show rollers that I keep around they are a red grizzle hen and blue check cock. About 5 years ago I got in to racing pigeons. My current bloodlines are Fabry, Van Riel, Stichelbaut, Bandit, and Gordan. I started out flying my birds myself. At first I lost a few, but in time I got better at it. I have had a lot of good friends help me out with my breeders. The one good thing I have learned about this sport is that there are a lot of good people willing to help you out. I entered some birds in the Kentucky State Fair this year and I won 1st place with a nice dunn check hen and 3rd place with a blue check hen. After the fair I ended up selling a lot of the birds I had raised. I am stilling raising birds and am thinking of joining a club this coming year for the young bird races.

171. Baby Pigeons? Baby pigeons Fact or Fantasy? Introduction. Table 1 Overall results of the survey Baby pigeons Do They Really Exist? (1,148 usable surveys). http://www.kappa-psi.org/webmaster/babypgn2.htm

Baby Pigeons: Fact or Fantasy? Introduction This question has puzzled mankind since the early plasteolithic era (around the mid 1950's). Various investigators have tried to both prove and disprove the existence of baby pigeons, with varying results ( Bobs, 1960; White et al, 1961; Gibbens 1964 ). Up to this date, no conclusive evidence exists to either support or disprove the extinctness of this heretofore unseen creature. As a result of our expensive literature search ( Ladies Home Journal Redbook Reader's Digest [large print editions] - 1960-1990; Annual meeting minutes of the American Audobon Society - 1966-1988; and the archives of the American Avian Society - 1940-1990), we were not able to find hide nor feather of any conclusive evidence that baby pigeons really exist. Study design In March of 1990, we embarked on a large scale multi-state study on a wing and a prayer to prove conclusively, that baby pigeons are mythical creatures, in the same cage as the Bird of Paradise, the Stool Pigeon, and the Bird Brain. Hoping to kill two birds with one stone, we sent questionnaires to two target groups; the American Audobon Society (AAS) [obviously] and the Society for the Protection of the Tall European Red Stool-pigeon (SPOTERS), [whose current membership numbers about 17].

173. Stereotyped Adjunctive Pecking By Caged Pigeons The behavior of 77 pigeons maintained at 80% of their freefeeding weights in open-wire battery cages was monitored 16 times a day by observers for up to 285 http://www.jsu.edu/depart/psychology/sebac/fac-sch/spot-peck/spot-peck.html

Stereotyped adjunctive pecking by caged pigeons WILLIAM L. PALYA Jacksonville State University, Jacksonville, Alabama 36265 JAMES P. ZACNY West Virginia University, Morgantown, West Virginia 26506 The behavior of 77 pigeons maintained at 80% of their free-feeding weights in open-wire battery cages was monitored 16 times a day by observers for up to 285 days. Five distinct types of stereotyped behaviors were operationally defined. One of these behaviors, "spot pecking," clearly predominated. Forty-nine of the 77 pigeons were observed spot pecking on at least 25% of the days they were observed, and several pigeons emitted more than 50,000 spot pecks per day. This occurred in spite of the total absence of any explicit reinforcer. A series of three experiments demonstrated that the great majority of spot pecks occurred in the hours immediately after feeding, that only food-deprived birds spot pecked, and that the behavior of adjacent birds influenced the rate of acquisition of stereotypes. Difficulties with labeling spot pecking as superstitious, respondent, or mediating are discussed. It is suggested that spot pecking be classed as an "adjunctive" behavior. There has recently been a growing interest in behaviors that are anomalous within the operant paradigm, and in the nonarbitrary way these behaviors participate in functional relationships, as shown by the work of Breland and Breland (1961, 1966)
