Diamond Dove/Peaceful Dove hybrids

[Chris Watson <>]

G'day all!

Really quick one today - does anyone know if these two species often 
interbreed in the wild? I'm looking out my office window at a bird on 
the bird bath with all of the plumage characteristics of a Peaceful 
Dove but with a red eye ring like a Diamond Dove. We get both species 
in the yard but this is the first time I've seen this bird.
Cheers,
