Ed, could this bird be a Eurasian collared dove?

Just a guess; otherwise, it might be an escaped caged bird... If it becomes a repeat visitor, I'd like to see it!

This morning we had a dove come in with mourning doves to feed-- almost white, half black collar, black eyes, pinkish feet, larger than mourning dove. What is it?
