different pigeon

I have pigeons of all shape colour and size visit my garden I've assumed they variants of the common or garden variety.

A collared dove?
We love them as they don't squabble over the bird feeder like the pigeons.
DGC have named 2 of them Lovey and Dovey.

I think it's a collared dove too. We get them in our garden and they look very graceful compared with the wood pigeons which are always hovering for any fallings from the seed fillers

No, it hasn't got the distinctive black 'collar'. I think it's just a common or garden pigeon!

Juvenile Collared Doves don't have a black collar until after their first moult in August/September.

There is a video on identifying pigeons and doves at www.bto.org/about-birds/bird-id/bto-bird-id-pigeons

From the photo, yours has a white front edge to the wing, but to me, it looks very young and slim, too young to have developed the white neck patch.

Thanks for your answers. It could be a young collared dove as suggested. It had taken up position on the fence by next doors bird feeders although it had no chance of getting on them. A young magpie did manage a quick go at the feeders despite the 'dove' flapping its wings at it trying to shoo it away.

It could also be a young wood pigeon. They look like that and always seem startled and stupid. Do you have wood pigeons around?

H and I thought wood pigeon.

It looks like a common old feral pigeon to me. Wood pigeons are more colourful albeit predominantly grey.

I think wood pigeon too.
I haven't seen my pair of collared doves today, but had 7 young magpies on my feeder this afternoon. They were trying all kinds of acrobatics to reach the dangling fat-filled coconut half then along comes a crow who grabs the string and hauls it up so that it can reach, much cleverer!

Collared doves are beige, not grey, but the one in the photograph looks like the wood pigeons in my garden, though smaller - maybe a youngster? Collared doves are such flirts! One day I saw one sitting on a trellis beside a pigeon and it kept sidling a little bit closer and closer! Eventually the pigeon decided it wasn't interested and took off.

Wood pigeons don't get their colour and the white bits until their second year. The young are beigy grey with a hint of the blue to come around their heads. We are 'blessed' with wood pigeons. They insist on roosting in the tree above where we have to park the car and occasionally lay a random egg!

Think wood pigeon also!
