White Wing Dove
Zenaida asiatica
San Isidro, Costa Rica

Large for doves, they can be distinguished from similar doves by the distinctive white edge on their wings. They have a blue eye ring, and red eyes. #bird #photography #costarica #dove #pigeon #whitewingdove

Do storms cause disruption for wildlife?
These doves were in my backyard after 2024’s hurricane Beryl. I found a nest on the ground later. However they overcame and visit my feeders to this day.

After hurricane Beryl rolled through Houston I was out taking pictures of the area. Lots of trees down, minor structural damage, some flooding. One of the aspects I was interested in was how the (plentiful) waterfowl and other wildlife would react. Waterfowl were foraging in large numbers, squirrels grabbing plentiful acorns knocked down. In my backyard branches were everywhere, including a nest. These white winged doves were rooting around, not eating. I asked them if they needed help. They didn’t respond, unfortunately. We still have doves that visit our feeders, so they seemed to make out OK.

Mr. White Wing Dove is polite in his requests. As befits the Bird of Peace he bows & requests his selection politely. Naturally I'm bringing out fresh seed. It’s been weeks of heavy rain requiring extra seed. Early morning.

This is pushing the K1 II to its limits. Very early misty dawn light, ISO 16000 and hazy light. However, it came out! I use the K1 II mostly for macro & landscape and the Pentax K3 III for wildlife. But I was coming back from macro shot work and just happened to have this setup. It worked! You go with what you have when wildlife are available.

A tiny ruby throat hummingbird visited. A new baby white wing dove, (maybe twins) and Lenny our desert lizard dropped his tail in defense 2 days ago.

skysopretty early August 2026 this is the Eurasian collared Dove who appears to be keeping an eye and has done this before upon another bird's nest which is directly below the Street lamp. this is a whitewingdove, as it sits on a haphazard looking woodsnest nestled in between a prickly pear paddle Cactus paddles with some diffused sunlight greenery behind it. I am standing pretty close to it but it won't leave that nest. I don't know who's more anxious, me or the bird. prickly pear paddle cactus in the Suburban Sonoran Desert of us agricultural zone 9B, the notorious Phoenix Foothills LOL, mostly a golf course community put together 50 years ago and now has a probably a 40% rental population versus ownership. very inflated prices however this White Winged Dove, has decided to put in nest where that white arrow is.
