Or a Downie Woodpecker female (with no red cap.)
Picoides pubescens
Interesting - it looks exactly like Leucania scirpicola, which was only found as far west as Texas on this site: http://www.nearctica.com/leucania/eol/lL...
Look like Morning Doves, which have longer tails than pigeons.
Very cool! Sure looks like a garter snake, but the head looks different.
