I received eleven mailings stating the bird was probably an Eurasian Collared Dove. Keith Brady said that one had moved into the County recently.

The bird has not shown today. I had taken two pictures with a point and shoot and sent them to Keith. He wrote, "...this could be a Ringed Turtle Dove. It seems to be slightly pale overall and have slightly paler wing tips than a European Collard ..." and sent four great pictures of Eurasian. Looking at Ringed Turtle in Sibley, it could be. Bird was light with some color on primaries.

Will keep an eye out for returning bird and hopefully better pics.
