Peter,

It is a bit difficult, but I would say Mourning Dove Zenaida macroura. Rather appropriate, considering the subject matter.

Cheers,

Carl Clifford

Someone recently drew my attention to this mural, painted on the roof of a smoking room:

In the sky in the mural is a bird flying over. Would anyone like to try guess the id?

I have no idea where it's supposed to be, and if it's a painting then of course the artist might have simply made it up, but it reminds me of the display flight of a Spotted Dove.
