Close-up of a Stock Dove, showing its soft grey feathers, glossy black eye, and a hint of iridescent green and purple on the neck. Its slight upturned beak and gentle expression give the impression of a serene - and mysteriously knowing - smile, set against a softly blurred green background.

It grants you great wisdom and fortune.
