It was only when i was uploading my pics that i realised that this could be a young collared dove! He doesnt have the black neck mark!! Could someone confirm for me please! He was quite small too, and was sat eating with the sturks x
Hes very sweet x
Woodie was here alot today, braving the gales!!!
...and posing!!!!
I'm no expert Karen but I think you are right, you are very observant! I must look more closely at the ones in my garden, I have to admit I have never noticed young ones but I think that is a failing in me!
ReplyDeleteYour Woodie is a real poser, they do have a comical look always :)
hi karen, nice pics, i don't know at what age they get the collar, but i do know that the immature doves don't have them, well spotted.
