A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Zenaida macroura
A medium sized bird with a long tail. It is gray and brown in color with some black spots on the wings. Below the eye is a crescent shaped spot of dark feathers.
These birds are often found feeding off the ground. They were found in my back yard. They rarely eat from my tree feeders. They are often seen in pairs.
These birds love to feed on the ground underneath my hanging bird feeders! They are beautiful birds. The fourth pictures shows what I believe is a white winged dove in the forefront, and a mourning dove in the back.
