White-winged Dove

White-winged doves are big, chunky birds, brownish-gray overall, and easy to pick out of a flock by a bold white band along the wing edge, a blue ring around the eye, and red eyes. Their native range runs from the southwestern United States through Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean, with outlying populations in western South America. They used to stick mainly to dense native brush, but once much of that original habitat got cleared, the species adapted readily to citrus groves and irrigated farmland instead — and has since pushed well past its historic range on the strength of that adaptability.
