Birding and Safari-ing South Africa with the ABA

10,000 Birds

Duncan’s 2014 List

10,000 Birds

I list mammals as well, at the end, where I have been able to identify them. Rock Dove, or Feral Pigeon, ( Columba livia ); Kota Kinabalu, Borneo, 2 January. Zebra Dove ( Geopelia striata ); Kota Kinabalu, Borneo, 5 January. I’m a terrible birder and may be wrong about identification. COLUMBIDAE (PIGEONS).
