Species: Eurasian collared dove

The European collared dove is found year-round throughout Europe and the Middle East. They are well-known for their coo-cooing call and can be recognized by their greyish-pink feathering, reddish feet and eyes, and the distinctive white and black collar. They feed on seeds and small insects and typically nest close to human habitations, breeding throughout the year when food sources permit.
