Eurasian Collared-Dove (Streptopelia decaocto) Pigeons and Doves (Columbidae)
dk: Tyrkerdue es: Paloma de Collar Turca
	2328 (3 photos) 2010-11-02 Topolobampo, Sinaloa, Mexico Subspecies: decaocto Adults. Spreading rapidly in Mexico too.
	2332 (1 photos) 2011-05-14 Kongelundsområdet, Amager, Denmark Subspecies: decaocto Classic.
	2326 (1 photos) 2014-12-28 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Subspecies: decaocto Adult. Unmistakable in Denmark with the cream-colored plumage. Notice much white on the outer part of the tail. Semi-common species mostly close to human surroundings.
	2329 (2 photos) 2015-10-11 Lo de Marcos, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico Subspecies: decaocto This dove is thriving in human surroundings what must be the reason to its fast successful expansion south through the American continent.
	2331 (1 photos) 2015-11-30 Bosque La Primavera, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico Subspecies: decaocto Standard individual. The most similar species in the area is White-winged Dove but this shows the white wing border and bluish skin around the eye. The domesticated form of African Collared-Dove (Streptopelia roseogrisea) is also established in a few spots in Mexico, but in general is not yet a concern of confusion. It is normally paler than S. decaocto.
	2330 (1 photos) 2016-02-11 Presa La Vega, west of Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico Subspecies: decaocto Rather uniform looks presented by this dove despite geographical distances.
	2333 (1 photos) 2016-02-12 Tårnby, Amager, Denmark Subspecies: decaocto A bird in fresh plumage. However, whether it is an adult or young bird is difficult to say, though it might have been expected that a young bird would have shown several worn feathers by this time of year, if it hadn't undergone a complete molt circle yet.
	2327 (1 photos) 2016-06-11 Houston, Texas (Tx), USA Subspecies: decaocto Adults. Introduced in North America and rapidly spreading south through the continent.
	2780 (12 photos) 2018-10-14 Peninsula Campos - Manzanillo, Colima (Col), Mexico Subspecies: ? Largest flock I've ever seen of this species. Estimated 900 birds! Apparently a preferred roosting site here at the far end of the now dead-end road.
