Picazuro Pigeon taking a dust bath at our lodge These pigeons are fairly common in South-east Brazil, so I was kind of surprised to find only one other photo on JD and from a Bird Park. This one was wild and enjoying a dust bath (supposedly to get rid of parasites) in the garden of our lodge at Serra da Canastra.
