About Each Bird (Descriptions)
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ #}
Tiny dove, 15–18 cm, with scaly brown plumage, rufous primaries, and a pink-red bill base. Widespread from the southeastern USA through Central America and the Caribbean to northern South America, in open scrub, farmland, and coastal habitats. Granivore of tiny seeds. One of North America's smallest doves. Least Concern.
Slender cuckoo-dove, 32–35 cm, uniform warm cinnamon-rufous with minimal barring and a relatively short tail. Restricted to Enggano Island off the southwestern coast of Sumatra. Inhabits dense lowland forest. Frugivore. Vulnerable due to extremely small range and ongoing forest loss on the island.
