Rock Doves, Rock Pigeons Maybe Are Like The Passenger on Magnum PI

Summary: Rock doves, rock pigeons maybe are like The Passenger, fifth-season episode 1, episode 77 overall, on drama action television series Magnum PI.

Domestic pigeons, rock doves and rock pigeons abandon their native rocky ambiences for American, Australian, European and Sub-Saharan African cityscapes such as public square-like areas with meal-, nest- and perch-friendly materials in such cities as Honolulu in Oahu County, Hawaii and San Francisco and San José in California ; Friday, Aug. 24, 2018, 12:33, image, "Just thought this was funny.

Rock doves, rock pigeons maybe are like The Passenger, action drama television series Magnum PI episode 77 overall, NBC 2022-2023 television season fifth-season first-episode debut Sunday, Feb. 19, 2023, rerun Feb. 20.

Rock doves, rock pigeons become, albeit for perhaps better purposes and reasons, like Magnum PI passengers in boarding certain mediums in certain places at certain times. The Columbiformes (from Greek κόλυμβος, “diver” via Latin columba, “dove, pigeon” and μορφή, “shape” via Latin fōrma, “shape” and -fōrmis, “-shaped”) order member came to Hawaii. The Columbidae (from Greek κόλυμβος, “diver” via Latin columba, “dove, pigeon” and -ειδής, “-like”) family member domiciles, as deliberate 18th-century introductions, throughout all the Hawaiian islands.

Columbia livia (from Greek κόλυμβος, “diver” via Latin columba, “dove, pigeon”; and perhaps līveō, “I am bluish-colored, envious, livid”) existed natively in Eurasia and Saharan Africa.

Domestic pigeons, rock doves and rock pigeons abide natively along Mediterranean Europe and Mediterranean and Saharan Africa; Mediterranean, Black Sea and Caspian Sea Eurasia; and mainland Eurasia and Asia through India and Sri Lanka. They presently abound along coastal Australia, South America and sub-Saharan Africa. They likewise accept Europe and, in southernmost and southwesternmost Canada and throughout insular and mainland United States, North America; Rock Dove Columbia livia distribution map, with Dark Red=approximate native range and Light Red=introduced non-native populations: Viktor Kravtchenko, CC BY 3.0 Unported, via Wikimedia Commons

All 50 Unitedstatesian states feature full-time populations of rock doves, figured taxonomically into the Linnaean classification system by Johann Friedrich Gmelin (Aug. 8, 1748-Nov. 1, 1804).

Physically and sexually mature female and male rock doves and rock pigeons get together year-round even as they generally guard March through November as breeding-season months. One-hundred-forty-, 140-plus-day-old females, with 6-year wild and 35-year captive life expectancies, have maximally six clutches of two 1.5-inch- (3.81-centimeter-) high, 1.25-inch- (3.18-) wide, smooth-surfaced, white eggs. Rock dove and rock pigeon eggs, hatchlings and nestlings inhabit grassy, twiggy platform nests installed on such flat, sheltered surfaces as buildings, caves and rocky outcrops.

Rock doves, rock pigeons journey like The Passenger on Magnum PI, sometimes to jubilate journeying in direct, strong flight patterns up to 60-mile (96.56-kilometer) hourly speeds.

Bowing to his intended life-long, monogamous partner accompanies circling, neck-puffing, tail-fanning and high-stepping by the courtship-minded male domestic pigeon, rock dove and rock pigeon. Courting males accomplish short-distance runs and wing-clapping flights that achieve V-held wings during their gliding aspects; Saturday, April 17, 2021, 14:05, image of courting feral rock pigeons, with iridescence visible, in Bay Ridge, southwestern borough of Brooklyn: Rhododendrites, CC BY SA 4.0 International, via Wikimedia Commons

Life-paired, monogamous rock dove and rock pigeon males know nest-building even as life-paired, monogamous rock dove and rock pigeon females and males know egg-incubating and parenting.

Rock dove and rock pigeon eggs log 18- to 19-day hatching times even as rock dove and rock pigeon nestlings look to 30-day pre-fledgling skill masteries. Female and male, juvenile and mature rock doves and rock pigeons munch upon fruits, insects and seeds as well as bread, farm crops, peanuts and popcorn. Rock dove and rock pigeon populations throughout the Hawaiian archipelago nestle into buildings, caves, rocky outcrops and sea cliffs near non-wooded, semi-wooded niches sea level upward.

Rock doves and rock pigeons perhaps occur least like The Passenger on Magnum PI in their obtaining such above-sea-level occupancies as 13,803-foot- (4,207.3-meter-) high Mauna Kea.

Domestic pigeons, rock doves and rock pigeons acquire grasses, leaves, roots, stems, sticks, straw and twigs for their platform, saucer-like nests on barn and bridge beams, building ledges and rafters at 10-, 30-, 100-foot (3.05-, 9.14-, 30.48-meter) heights. Domestic pigeon, rock dove and rock pigeon fathers- and mothers-to-be act together in actualizing seasonal nests that sometimes adapts to same-year single-, double-, triple brooding and to year-after-year nesting and parenting activities. They adjust to 17-, 18-, 19-day incubations of each clutch of semi-glossy, smooth, subelliptical, 1.54- by 1.14-inch (39- by 29-millimeter), white, 0.6-ounce (17.01-gram) eggs. Domestic pigeon, rock dove, rock pigeon life cycles admit 30- to 35-day dependencies of hatched newborns. Altricial (from Latin alō, “I nourish” and alere, “to nourish” via Latin altor, “nourisher”) hatchlings affect downy appearances with coarse, red-tinted, sparse, yellow down. Their downy bodies and heads ally with pink-tipped gray bills and gray-pink feet and legs. Domestic pigeon, rock dove and rock pigeon fathers and mothers alternate in meal-time crop milk and soaked seeds and in skill acquisition. Near-fledging nestlings already amble around and amplify their body language with loud peeping sounds; Wednesday, Feb. 18, 2015, 16:40, image of an egg-incubating pigeon: Karthik Easvur, CC BY SA 4.0 International, via Wikimedia Commons

Mature females and males possess 11- to 14-inch- (28- to 36-centimeter-) long, 9- to 14-ounce- (250- to 400-gram) bodies with 20- to 26-inch (51- to 67-centimeter) wingspans.

Rock doves and rock pigeons quarter short bills; dark-pupiled, orange eyes; iridescent necks; gray backs; black wing bars; white underwings; white rumps; and red-marked gray legs. They reveal blue-gray heads, necks and chests; dark gray-pink bills; glossy green, purple-red and yellow iridescence along their necks and wing feathers; one blue-gray tail band. They sound deep coo rolls, downward-inflected harsh kee-arr and kik-kik-kik and kirri-kirri calls even as their gurgling, soft coo-roo-c’too-oo and oor-oor vocalizations suggest courtship and threats.

Rock doves, rock pigeons, perhaps least like The Passenger on Magnum PI, travel over highest Hawaii at Mauna Kea (from Hawaiian mauna, “mountain” and kea, “white”).

Private investigator Thomas Sullivan Magnum's portrayer Jay Hernandez (born 1978) celebrated his 45th birthday and the beginning of his fifth season in the title role of NBC action drama television series Magnum P.I. the day after the season 5 double-episode premiere of Passenger and The Breaking Point.: Magnum PI Headquarters @magnumpihq, via Twitter Feb. 20, 2023
