Plenty of them in Arizona, have to ping them with BB gun to keep them off my bird feeders. I think they are pushing out the mourning doves and pigeons too. I have eaten a few of them, same as the other doves. The season is year round with no limit. We have welcome mats out with some of the dairy farmers around here, for those of us they know, to shoot Collared and Pigeons anytime. No question they will be a blight on agriculture soon. Easier to hit than Mourning Doves with slower flight and few evasive maneuvers.
