Eurasian Collared Dove

This dove's call is the typically soothing, "coo-COO-coo!" It is characterized by the pale gray overall color and distinct black collar around the back of its neck. They can breed up to six times a year in warmer climates. Eurasian Collared Doves dine on grain and seeds, and are common feeder visitors. See also this blog post.

  1. These look like the doves that hang by my feeder!
    Check out The Marmelade Gypsy tomorrow afternoon (March 30, after 12). There is an award waiting for you on my blog! Because I really enjoy yours!
