Audubon's Zenaida Dove Bird Pair on Tree Branch Standard Apron

This pair of Zenaida Doves is perched in a white flowering tree branch with green leaves. These brown doves are sometimes mistakenly referred to as turtle doves. Audubon apparently found this male and female pair nesting in the Florida Keys, though this Caribbean bird rarely travels that far. The Zenaida dove is the national bird of Anguilla. This is plate 162 of the Birds of America series by John James Audubon.
