Alphabet Challenge -D Dove

These spotted doves are gentle creatures unlike their aggressive cousins the pigeons.  The  spots on their neck and wings makes them very attractive.  These birds are shy and seem to hide in the trees. Sometimes they are called pearl necked doves too.

Even their cooing is gentle. I love watching these pretty creatures. We had a couple of them that  used to feed from our bird feeders. But they fly away at the slightest movement . I could never take pictures of these birds at our bird feeder.

  1. We have different varieties here and I love seeing them. Not sure if I have seen this one, how pretty. We have the Eurasian collared dove, mourning dove, but this one looks different.
