Band-tailed Pigeon

Patagioenas fasciata

Overview

Monteverde, Arenal and Manuel Antonio are the three atlas places where the Band-tailed Pigeon is recorded. Its records concentrate in the United States, Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica and Ecuador. The atlas holds about 696,000 records of this bird from ten countries, and the map shows where these sightings concentrate.

Because this species is recorded in both hemispheres, the seasons for sightings differ by region. Each place page in the atlas shows the months it was recorded there.

These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Band-tailed Pigeon as much as where it lives. The atlas keeps a species' 200 best-recorded grid cells, so the map shows where records concentrate rather than its whole range. Cells are up to 25 km across, and every location is generalised to its cell.
