I  have been informed that the State Government (DPI) had two Barbary Doves 
removed from their main site in Bayside - the Brighton Dunes/Dr Jim Willis 
Reserve - on 17 Feb.

That was a day after I saw one on a nest there.

So that means no(?) breeding population remains in Victoria. Thank you, DPI 
(and in the past DSE)!

Please report any further sightings to the DPI (or me),

I guess that people are releasing surplus cage birds so they could get going 
again.
