White-winged Dove - St Kitts - March 2018
Photographed at Romney Manor. This species only recently colonized the Lesser Antilles, with the first records from St Martin in 1999 and Anguilla in 2000. The date of the first record from St Kitts is unknown to me, but probably was between 2000 and 2005, given the timing of records elsewhere in the Lesser Antilles. On St Kitts, it is fairly common, favoring towns and nearby areas.
