Aruba- A visitor on our balcony

Thanks to Jet Blues 10 year anniversary special, in which all flights were 10 dollars if you took off Tuesday and returned Wednesday, my GF and I were able to take a 24 hours trip to Aruba. The morning we were to leave I was putting away all my stuff and I hear my girlfriend on the balcony saying "here birdie birdie". I walk over and saw this little fellow so i ran back and got my camera plus some fries to keep him around. He was very straight forward and even took food right from my GFs hands.

Tough crowd on this side of the forum. Does anyone at least know what type of bird this is?

#1 and #3 is a mourning dove, not sure about the second.

The first one looks like a Mourning Dove. As for the second one, I'm not sure either but it looks like a house sparrow. I hope someone clarifies these for you though!!

Nice story, Omar. Hope you had a great trip! As Dan said, the first bird is a mourning dove, the second is a male house sparrow.

Found my book. vinnie6756 is right, it's a house sparrow.

He also was very territorial as he would charge other smaller birds who approached our balcony. This fellow could only watch

We have morning doves all over the place. I find it ironic that the dove is a bird of peace, but they are feisty, mean birds themselves.

Thanks Dan for going through the trouble of double checking! I have no clue beyond just a few birds what they are

I was really surprised with how territorial the Dove became. As soon as any other bird landed on the balcony it would charge at them.

Thanks everyone for your comments as i had no clue what bird i was looking at!
