I know this is probably old news, but the family had a good long look at a
Barbary Dove in the front yard of a house in the Northern suburbs of
Canberra on 27 Dec 2002. It was very friendly, and seemed an almost perfect
match for the image on
http://www.honoluluzoo.org/ringnecked_or_barbary_dove.htm . I'm red-green
colourblind so will have to consult family to check if its colour was fawn
or pink.

Probably an escapee pet.
