  2. Namaqua Dove

    Namaqua Dove

    This distinctive species ranges throughout southern Africa where it is said to be common in more arid areas. However, we only saw a few on our recent trip. The black face and bib are found only on adult males. It is Africa's smallest dove and is the sole member of the genus "Oena"...
