Mourning Dove
Common everywhere. These images are from the Cuyamaca Mountains, California.
Common Ground Dove
Photographed near the Salton Sea, Imperial County, California. The first image appears to be a pair (male on the right?) who were snuggling under a bush at the Visitor's Center!

All of these images are from Tucson Mountain Park, except the last, which is from Patagonia, Arizona.
