Eurasian Collared Dove - Animal India
The Eurasian collared dove, or Indian ringed dove (Streptopelia decaocto), is a medium-sized species native to Europe and Asia. It has been introduced to Japan, North America, and islands in the Caribbean. The dove is grey-buff to pinkish-grey overall, slightly darker above than below, with a blue-grey underwing patch. It features a distinctive black half-collar edged with white on its nape, from which it derives its name. The Eurasian collared dove is not migratory but is highly dispersive. Over the last century, it has become one of the great colonizers of the bird world, extending its range to colder countries and becoming a permanent resident in several of them. These doves are monogamous. A Eurasian collared dove is perched on a custard apple (Annona reticulata) tree in a forest in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, as of 17 April 2024.
