I never thought about it, but yeah, I think I've seen pigeons in every city I've been to in the US, and also outside of the US.
Crows, hummingbirds, sparrows, occasional seagulls (I live in the San Gabriel Valley but seagulls do come inland from the coast, usually when there's a rainstorm, and of course I see them when I go to the beach), I see those too in my area.
Do any of you guys have feral parrots? They abound where I live in South Pasadena. They're loud, and almost sound human sometimes. I think they're cute birds, though. They often fly in flocks, but sometimes you'll see a pair of them flying around. I learned that when they find a mate, they pair up for life, which I find somehow romantic. :-P
I occasionally will see a stray or feral peacock or two, roaming the streets of South Pasadena. I assume they escaped from the Huntington Library and Gardens, which is nearby in San Marino. You also see peacocks at the LA County Arboretum in Arcadia, and I know that some of them escape too.
