Live in desert, 24 miles out to nowhere is hot pond. Bird was down and weak and easy to handle. Put in car and took home. Bird is eating and drinking. Know nothing about this bird except feel it is either on its way some where or excaped from some where. What’s the red band about and the heavier black band looking thing? Plan on letting it feed and rest for a day or so and turn it loose. A friend just told me that it is a veryspecial Bird ???

That means if you have ten of them set in good locations you can expect one bird a day. Twenty traps will net you one or two birds a day, three if you are lucky. I have caught multiple dove in one arapuca, it can happen in a good location. With over 100000 views from all over the world it would be impossible to give specific information regarding bait or trap placement.
