Grenada dove

I am the national bird of Grenada Island in
the Pacific Ocean. I am the Grenada dove.

Blast from teristics migratory; Diurnal
the past Non-

I have had several names over
the years. I was called the pea
dove in the 1800s and Well’s

dove in the 1970s.

Beauty and elegance Charac

I am a medium-sized bird. I am brown and
white in colour—my face is white and my
wings are brown. My belly and feet
are pinkish-red, while my tail is
completely brown. My crown, or
the top of my head, is slightly
blue, making me royal
and elegant.
