Zenaida macroura carolinensis is a subspecies of mourning dove native to North America. It is found on east Canada and east USA, Bermuda, Bahama Islands.[1] This subspecies has longer wings and toes, a shorter beak, and is darker in color.[2]
Zenaida macroura carolinensis is present in the North Atlantic archipelago of Bermuda, approximately 1,044 km (649 mi) east-southeast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina (the nearest landfall); 1,236 km (768 mi) south of Cape Sable Island, Nova Scotia; and 1,538 km (956 mi) due north of the British Virgin Islands, from which they had been migratory, but since the 1950s have become year-round residents.[3]
