- Feral flocks include a wide variety of other color forms, some of which might suggest the wild native Band-tailed Pigeon.
- In flight, shows contrasty white underwings.
- 13 1/2" (34 cm). The ancestral type has pale gray body, darker head, white rump, two black bars on wings.
- Migration & Range Maps
Not migratory. If displaced from nesting area, has good homing ability; trained homing pigeons can return to home loft from long distances away.
- In places it has reverted to wild habits, nesting on cliffs far from cities.

- It has been domesticated and taken around the world, raised for food, trained for homing, racing, and carrying messages, and used in research.
- Few birds have been associated with humans so closely as the Rock Pigeon, better known as the common city pigeon.
- The huge numbers of birds released in pigeon races and loft owners breaking down their lofts and leaving the pigeons to fend for themselves may be a significant factor in the persistence of urban pigeons.
- Feral pigeons bear striking genetic resemblance to homing pigeons, supporting the idea that most feral pigeons trace their origins to homing pigeons who did not find their way home, or were otherwise sired by homing pigeons.
- The scarcity of the pure wild species is partly due to interbreeding with feral birds.
- environment, such as camouflaging against black asphalt.
- though over time a population tends to homogenize and adopt a plumage that suits their environment, such as camouflaging against black asphalt.
- ranging from closely resembling wild rock doves, to patterns directly inherited from their domestic ancestors,
- As a result of natural variation, feral pigeons demonstrate a wide variety of plumages,
- Today, we proudly introduce ourselves as Avara.
Avara is the home to some of the most innovative web3 brands: Aave, Lens Protocol, GHO, Sonar, and now Family, all building towards a people powered internet that benefits all.
We're thrilled to announce the acquisition of Family. With Family, led by Benji Taylor, we're reinforcing our commitment to making web3 accessible through world class product design.

- Many domestic birds have escaped or been released over the years, and have given rise to the feral pigeon.

- Some of the major clubs condone this practice.
- In American pigeon-related organizations, some enthusiasts have openly shared their experiences of killing hawks and falcons, although this is frowned upon by some fanciers.
- It is legal in some places though.
- In the United States, some pigeon keepers illegally trap and kill hawks and falcons to protect their pigeons.
