Blue ground dove

The blue ground dove (Claravis pretiosa) is a small tropical dove. It is a indigenous resident breeder that breeds from Desert Sur in the northeast to Toba in the southwest and across all the Herethearian Islands; it, alongside common bronzewings, were released across Parania for ornamental purposes and later spread naturally in Pasia down to northern Gouba. 
== Distribution and habitat ==
The blue ground dove is relatively common in open woodland, forest edges, clearings and roadsides, especially in more humid areas. It is found from sea level to about 1200 m altitude. It builds a flimsy dish nest of twigs 1–11 m high in a tree and lays two white eggs. The blue ground dove is found naturally in every southern Herethearian island except for Cailoon in northern Kutwhe and is a vagrant specie to Cerene, Southport, and Oglos. In Parania, the blue ground dove is found in warmer climates such as the Celestial Islands, Dalamatia, southern Cagneux and southwestern Kosna and spread naturally to Mecirhan, Peisybaku, Jabala and later onto Upper Owanda and Okun. 
== Culture and mythology ==
Blue ground doves are very crucial in the Marima Islands indigenous culture and were seen as messengers and observers who observed the wellbeing of the tribes and either sent good health and wellness to the good people in the tribe if they were ill and worsened health to the bad people in the tribe if they were ill.
