This morning, while walking the dog at first light, I saw a
pair of pigeons on a power line whose silhouette did not
look like the normal feral pigeons. I didn't have my binos,
but I had a camera, so I snapped 2 quick pics of one of them
before they flew off and have now had a look at it and it is
clearly a Spotted Turtle Dove.

I have seen these down the coast but, being a novice, I
don't know whether they are common around here, hence this
posting.

Leo.
