in summer, but usually quite common in the foothills in 

 winter. I have shot them in July, in Calaveras County,

Igo. E. L. Ballou. — A migrant and resident. On 

 March 26 and 27,. 1884, a flock seen; also during our 

 heavy snow storms, five weeks previously, from which I 

 infer that the storms and pigeons had some connection. 



Cape Foulweather. S. L. Wass. — Resident. 



Willamette Valley. 0. B. Johnson. — An abundant 

 summer resident. • 



Cooper, 1860. Arrives at Columbia River in April.

 sional straggler in the country west of the Rocky
