New bird species for hills: Common Ground-Dove
A male (see photo) was singing this morning at the Powder Canyon trailhead. This bird is a very localized resident in southern California, maintaining a small population in our area along the lower San Gabriel River. Has anyone had this bird at their feeder? They are tiny doves, just a little bigger than sparrows.

The ground doves abound in Powder Canyon particularly in the restoration area along the dirt road to the parking area. Other sightings are frequent along Powder Canyon trail.
