About These Birds

African Collared-dove

Small dove, 26–29 cm, pale pinkish-grey with a black hindneck collar and white tail corners. Native to arid zones of sub-Saharan Africa from Senegal to Somalia and south to Tanzania. The ancestor of the domesticated Barbary Dove (ring-necked dove). Granivore of grass seeds and small grains in dry savanna, farmland, and desert edge. Least Concern.

Tuxtla Quail-Dove

Medium quail-dove, 25–28 cm, with brown upperparts, grey head and neck, rufous breast, and pale facial stripe. Confined to cloud forest and humid montane forest in Veracruz and adjacent Oaxaca, Mexico. Terrestrial forager of seeds and fruits. Endangered due to extreme range restriction and continuous cloud-forest loss.
