Eurasian Collared Dove

Slightly smaller and paler than Rock Pigeon, with a proportionately longer, square-tipped tail. Favors farms and suburbs; avoids areas with extensive forests. Typically seen in pairs or small loose groups; forms larger flocks in winter. Very similar to African Collared Dove. Eurasian Collared Dove has black down the outter rim of their tail feathers. Makes a cooing “woop-WOOO!-woop”.
