Turtle doves
Turtle doves are a common enough sight in
their African and Asian heartlands, from where they've gone on to
colonise much of Europe. When introduced to places in which they don't
naturally occur, notably North America, population expands rapidly,
making turtle doves a highly successful group of birds. The collared
dove and turtle dove are just two species from this group, and you can
click on the images below to watch video or just find out more about
these very typical doves. Listen out for the monotonous cooing and
purring of these common and widespread birds.
