The Mi Aldea Services store (3220 Madison Ave., Riverside) has a simple mural with a green bird with a long tail flanked by words in Spanish above its door. Mi Aldea is the name of the shop and means My Village in Spanish. Ave Nacional means National Bird and represents the resplendent quetzal, the national bird of Guatemala. More recently, another small mural of a flower has appeared on the store. It appears to be of the “La Monja Blanca” or the White Nun Orchid which is the national flower of Guatemala. The artist for both murals are unidentified.
