what classification do pigeons fall under?

Recommended Posts

I am confused with pigeons classification... 

 

"The name “Migratory” is somewhat misleading because some migratory birds like the Merlin are not protected by the MBCA while some non-migratory species like the Downy Woodpecker are! The birds covered by the MBCA in Ontario are: loons, grebes, shearwaters, fulmars, storm-petrels, gannets, anhingas, herons, bitterns, ibises, storks, swans, geese, ducks, rails, gallinules, coots, cranes, shorebirds, jaegers, gulls, terns, skimmers, alcids, pigeons, doves (except Rock Dove), cuckoos, goatsuckers, swifts, hummingbirds, woodpeckers, tyrant flycatchers, larks, swallows, titmice, chickadees, nuthatches, creepers, wrens, kinglets, gnatcatchers, thrushes, mockingbirds, thrashers, catbirds, pipits, silky-flycatchers, shrikes, vireos, wood warblers, tanagers, cardinals, sparrows, buntings, meadowlarks, bobolinks, orioles and finches. The MBCA generally does not protect introduced species such as the European Starling and House Sparrow. See the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act (Ontario) for birds regulated by the province."   But they do not migrate??😡😡
