Inca Dove

Wow, I'm used to seeing mourning doves around here, even the occasional collard or whit4e wing doves. This is the first time I noticed an Inca Dove (Columbina inca). I took this in March 2024 and didn't pick up on the bird until today. I probably thought a mourning dove until today when I took a closer look. We live just below the northern edge of this species range. Very cool.

"The tiny Inca Dove is covered in tan scaly-looking feathers and blends right in with its suburban desert habitats. That is, until it bursts into flight, making a dry rattling whir with its wings while flashing chestnut underwings and white in its tail. It nods its head forward and back with each step and coos a mournful "no hope" from the trees. ..." - allaboutbirds.org
