Band-tailed Pigeon - (Patagioenas fasciata) - 2/18/2021, 12:01 PM

In addition to posting at inaturalist, I also post on several Facebook birding sites. On one of these sites, a more experienced birder than I, let me know this behavior is known as a "Wing Clap." Birds will do this as a warning to others about predators, or during mating rituals. A Band-tailed Pigeon - (Patagioenas fasciata) engaged in, "Wing Clapping." Carmel, CA. USA. Photo © Kathleen L.
