Stock Dove (Forest of Dean)

I managed to get out into the wild world, it was a gloomy sort of day, but, it did get a brief interlude with it was sunny, not for very long though.

  14. Glad you got out, Bob. I didn't but we need the rain so I'm not complaining. Interesting colors on these guys. They're coloring is more like that of our pigeons (aka rock doves, flying rats, %@#$@!!'s pests, etc). Our mourning doves are mostly tan but still have the iridescent patches.
