The wood pigeon is a regular (almost too regular) visitor to my garden, but last week I saw a different kind of pigeon. Rather than assume it was a feral pigeon I took a look at the RSPB bird identifier and learnt something new… there is such a thing as a stock dove. I had never before come across a stock dove – I was only familiar with turtle dove and collared dove, but I’m pretty sure this is one…
Any dove experts care to confirm?
