Observation details
The subject was seen perched on a utility wire and photographed in the morning on 1 February 2002. This sighting was documented with the Florida Ornithological Society and American Birding Association as the (at the time, anyway) northernmost record of White-crowned Pigeon on the Atlantic coast. The record was recorded in FOS's "Florida Field Naturalist" publication and ABA's "North American Birds" publication (summer 2002 edition). From NA Birds (volume 56, issue 2): "Wintering White-crowned Pigeons are rare, so 2 at Collier-Seminole S.E, Collier 9 Feb (fideTD) were noteworthy; one photographed at Port Orange, Volusia 1 Feb (KD, ph.) established the most northerly record along the Atlantic coast."
