The Indian Emerald Dove, also called the Green-Winged Pigeon or Green Dove, is the state bird of Tamil Nadu. In the mid-18th century the bird was recorded by George Edwards in his A Natural History of Uncommon Birds who writes that he saw the bird at the house of a merchant in Rotherhithe and that it had been brought with him from the East Indies (London, 1743-1751, p. 14). However, the bird is found across India, China and East Asia.
