Sadly, it appears the Inca Dove has moved on.  Kurt Schwarz 
and I were on vigil from 7:30 am to 10:15 am, but there was 
no sign of the bird (and there were very few Mourning Doves 
in general; lots of Juncos though, and a nice male/female 
pair of Hairy Woodpeckers at the veggie "suet" feeders).

This will be my last update, though of course should the 
Inca Dove or any other remarkable bird turn up I'll be sure 
to post! :)

Meanwhile, here are some more photos of the dove, and a 
shaky video, taken on Monday:

Enjoy!

P.S. I would like to thank the visitors that came through 
for their consideration of my neighbours, etc., and for the 
understanding of those who did not get to see the bird.
