Collared Turtle-dove in Murray Bridge, SA & other 'ferals'.

["michael norris" <>]

There are some diagnostics for distinguishing S. decaocto and S. 'risoria' 
listed at
http://home.xnet.com/~ugeiser/Birds/Streptopelia.html

But maybe they are out of date.

As for the common names they are bewildering.  Trevor's web page actually 
says "I immediately thought it was a Collared Turtle-dove (also called a 
Barbary Dove)".
