Migration

United States:

Blue Ground Doves (Claravis pretiosa) are primarily found in Central and South America, where they inhabit diverse ecosystems ranging from humid lowland forests to montane regions. However, they are not typically migratory birds in the traditional sense. While some individuals may exhibit localized movements in response to changes in food availability or environmental conditions, they generally do not undertake long-distance migrations like some other bird species.

Mexico:

In Mexico, Blue Ground Doves are known to inhabit various habitats, including tropical forests, scrublands, and agricultural areas. While some populations may exhibit seasonal movements within their range, particularly in response to fluctuations in food resources or breeding conditions, these movements are typically localized rather than true migratory behavior.

Costa Rica:

In Costa Rica, Blue Ground Doves can be found in a range of habitats, from lowland rainforests to cloud forests and agricultural areas. While they may move between different habitats in search of food or suitable nesting sites, they generally do not undertake long-distance migrations. Instead, they are more likely to exhibit localized movements within their range.

Colombia:

While some individuals may move between different habitats within their range, particularly in response to seasonal changes or resource availability, they generally do not undertake long-distance migrations like some other bird species.

Brazil:

In Brazil, Blue Ground Doves are found in a range of habitats, including tropical forests, savannas, and agricultural areas. While they may exhibit localized movements within their range, particularly in response to changes in food availability or breeding conditions, they are not considered migratory birds in the traditional sense.

Peru:

Blue Ground Doves can be found in various habitats throughout Peru, including rainforests, dry forests, and agricultural areas. While they may move between different habitats within their range, particularly in response to changes in food availability or breeding conditions, they generally do not undertake long-distance migrations. Instead, they are more likely to exhibit localized movements within their range.

Chile:

Blue Ground Doves can be found in various habitats throughout Chile, including forests, scrublands, and agricultural areas. While they may move between different habitats within their range, particularly in response to changes in food availability or breeding conditions, they generally do not undertake long-distance migrations. Instead, they are more likely to exhibit localized movements within their range.
