The Zebra Dove Geopelia striata, also known as Barred Ground Dove, is a bird of the dove family Columbidae, native to South-east Asia. It is closely related to the Peaceful Dove of Australia and New Guinea and the Barred Dove of eastern Indonesia. These two were classified as subspecies of the Zebra Dove until recently and the names Peaceful Dove and Barred Dove were often applied to the whole species.

That's a cool-looking bird. It's got very different markings than the doves we have here in the US.

You shoot so many different birds, dolina. Is this a hobby or do you do it for a living? Can you tell us more about your technique and how much you shoot?
