in Ornithology, the name used by authors for the stock-dove, or wood-pigeon, called also by some vinago, somewhat larger than the common pigeon, but of the same shape and general colour. Its neck is of a fine changeable hue, as differently opposed to the light; and its breast, shoulders, and wings, are of a fine purplish hue, or red wine colour, from whence it has its name vinago.
