“…However, white-winged doves have steadily increased the periphery of their range northward, particularly in urban locales, over the last several decades (Cottam and Trefethen, 1968;Small et al, 1989;Hayslette et al, 1996;Waggerman, 1998). Relatively little information regarding natural history dynamics is available for these colonial populations.…”

White blood cell counts, heterophil-lymphocyte ratios, and leukocyte differentials of captive white-winged doves (Zenaida asiatica) from Texas equipped with different radiotransmitter attachment packages were monitored. Doves were segregated by gender and age by males, females, and hatching year; individuals housed in 30 large outdoor pens in groups of seven. Treatments consisted of controls, glue-on transmitters, body loop harnesses, surgically implanted intracoelomic transmitters, surgically implanted subcutaneous transmitters, intracoelomic surgery without implants, and subcutaneous surgery without implants. We used multivariate analysis of variance with pen as a blocking variable and gender nested and repeated measures analysis of variance to identify differences among any of the transmitter attachment techniques and the control for dependent variables. We found no difference in blood parameters between transmitter attachment technique versus a control.

“…13B) and occurs in low densities throughout the LRGV (Boydstun and DeYoung, 1988). It is more selective of nesting habitat than most other doves and consistently prefers increasingly rare and isolated forests of Texas ebony, sugarberry, and cedar elm in the LRGV, although they have been known to nest in citrus groves and urban parks in the past (Boydstun and DeYoung, 1985Hayslette and others, 2000;Brush, 2005). Columbina passerina (common ground doves) are found primarily in dry, rural mesquite savannas and grassland/thornscrub and have the fewest interactions with other doves and pigeons in the LRGV (Brush, 2005).…”

“…Along with congeneric Zenaida macroura (mourning doves), whitewinged doves are comfortable in agricultural and urban settings and readily nest in available offerings . Numbers of white-winged doves in the LRGV have varied through time, influencing harvest regulations (Small and Waggerman, 1999;Hayslette and others, 2000;Brush, 2005). They were much more abundant in 1930s and declined after being forced to shift nesting from diminishing native thorn brushlands to expanding citrus orchards, which were severely damaged by freezes in 1951, 1962, and 1983(Lonard and Judd, 1991 and more recently in 1989 and 2011.…”

Using banding data to estimate primary feather molt and hatch chronology of white‐winged doves in Texas

Banding data are commonly used to estimate vital rates for migratory game bird management. We used white‐winged dove (Zenaida asiatica) banding data to estimate molt and hatch chronology in Texas. We used Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's long‐term, state‐wide banding data (71,675 banded individuals) from 1 June to 15 August 2007–2016 to investigate primary feather molt and hatching in white‐winged doves in Texas. We estimated primary feather molt and used individual recapture data to determine reliability of models predicting primary feather molt rates. For hatching, we used primary feather molt scores of captured hatch‐year doves to backdate to an estimated hatch date. Our modeling predicted mean after‐hatch‐year primary feather molt rate of 13.21 ± 0.93 days. We predicted 95% of adult white‐winged doves began molting between 7 April to 8 July and completed molt between 17 August to 17 November. Across all years, white‐winged doves hatched as early as 6 January and as late as 27 July, with 95% of all hatching occurring between 22 March and 18 June and peaking on 4 May. Primary feather molt initiation peaked 16 days after the peak of hatching, suggesting that white‐winged doves delay the onset of primary molt until reproductive activity slows. Secondary data collected during banding operations on migratory game birds may be used to understand additional life processes without the requirement to initiate additional survey efforts.
