Emerald (blue?) Dove

[Roopak Gangadharan]

Not a good image, but this bird seemed to have Bluish green wing plumage instead of the Typical Emerald green.It was under a thick canopy and i didnt get time to adjust the ISO settings. Not sure if this the result of low light....

It seems you had to contend with some poor light. Better luck next time.

Yes there seems to be a bluish green tint. Don't think it is because of the light. Wish the light had been better. Where was this photographed?

Sure is an Emerald dove. Tough lighting. It is good that you got the catchlight. Hope you get one in good light soon. Thanks for sharing.
