A couple of years ago I started noticing a pair of Crested Pigeons hanging around near the RSL around the corner. Seeing as I drive past there everyday on the way to and from work I always keep an eye out and see one or both of them at least once a week. I saw a pair elsewhere near home - I'm guessing it may have been the same birds.
A while back I saw one bird on the verge along Abernathy Road. Today a flock of about 7 birds flew across Abernathy on the way home from work. I am 99.5% sure they were Crested Pigeons - Rock Pigeons don't have that distinctive flight patten.
I'm betting we're gonna see a lot more of them in the metro area in the future. Soon they'll probably be as common here as they are in Adelaide.
