Many thanks to Pete Davidson for allowing us to post his photos of the British Columbia Oriental Turtle-Dove.

The bird was discovered Monday at Alaksen NWA, next door to the Reifel Bird Sanctuary.

The past couple of days have produced no further sightings, but as Vancouver birders have noted, there are lots of dove flocks to look through up there.
