Turtle Dove

Tweet of the Day : Turtle Dove ;  We have couple hanging around the bird feeder …sadly down to one…quiet recently ....but she still shows up...probably the tamest of the bunch. The turtle dove is a dainty dove, smaller and darker than the collared dove and slightly larger than a blackbird. Its upper-parts are distinctively mottled with chestnut and black and its black tail has a white edge.
