A Grey-fronted Dove (Leptotila rufaxilla), photographed at Jardí­n Botánico in Montevideo, Uruguay. Note the orange iris; the grey forehead; the blue-violet wash to the crown, nape, and shoulders; the reddish breast and paler belly; olive brown lower back and flight feathes; and broad, dark tail. The bird struck me as being about the same size as an Eared Dove (Zenaida auriclata), with a similar, squat, short-legged structure. It was fairly timid, allowing me only this one shot before it flew off.
