It is smaller than the domestic pigeon. It has has different varieties, one of them have blue feathers around the eyes, however this is not the case of the specimen shown in the photos. A particular characteristic is the gray and brown color of its body feathers.

The photos were taken in Antofagasta (Chile) with the camera of a Samsung Galaxy s22 Ultra using the 10x lens, which gives an equivalent focal length of 230mm in the full frame format. The post-processing was done in Gimp.

The photos are awesome! I am still impressed about the varieties of pigeons.

Unfortunately, in many places these minority species of doves are endangered by the common domestic pigeon.
Thanks for your comment.
