The Collared Dove is a type of bird that you can find in many different countries these days. They first came from Asia and Turkey originally, but then spread out to places like Europe, Africa and even across to the Americas. These doves have a pale, greyish-brown coloured body with a black ring of feathers around the back of their necks, which is how they got their name. They're quite plump, medium-sized birds, measuring about 30cm in length. Collared Doves tend to live close to where people are, in gardens, parks and on farms. Their main food is seeds and grains that they pick up off the ground. You'll probably recognise their cooing call which they make frequently during the day. For nesting, they build them up in trees or on buildings using twigs, and lay two white eggs at a time.
