Here's a short list of a few North American wild birds:


What about bird that are on a typical hawk's dinner menu, such as the
Morning Dove? I certainly don't have detailed knowledge of birds, but it
appears to me that you selected the least tastiest treats out there to
prove your point.

Presuming you meant the Mourning Dove, how about this list:
[note that numbers in the last column are years and months.]

3120 Band-tailed Pigeon 18-06
3140 White-crowned Pigeon 14-05
3151 Spotted Dove 7-08
3160 Mourning Dove 31-04
3180 White-tipped Dove 8-07
3190 White-winged Dove 21-09
3200 Common Ground-Dove 7-02
3210 Inca Dove 10-10


Hmmmm, 31yrs.... and the other popular game bird, the White-winged... but
it only has a typical life span of 21 years

Oh, by the way, bird's are not dinner fare for the "typical" hawk, more like
for the Sharp-Shinned and the Cooper's. You need to do your homework also,
Peter, before you go running off without engaging the brain.

And you, sir, need a sense of humor. My post was not meant to be taken as
seriously as you did, but I am appreciative of the additional information
you provided.
