      hello just back from birdwatching and can safely say that doves and pigeons are
      essentially the same, but the larger ones are usually called pigeons and the
      smaller ones doves. the smelly manky things you see in city centres are feral
      pigeons, the big fat ones with the white patch on the neck that hang out in
      gardens are woodpigeons, and the smaller light grey/brown ones with a black mark
      on the neck are collared doves. there you are. happy twitching!!

        We must have been in the same park! Doves tend to be sleeker and
        smaller with pointed tails, pigeons larger and with a bigger build
        and rounded tails. The common urban pigeon such is often known as
        the 'Rock Dove.' Party on! :-)

              just try to eat your left hand finger and after than try small part of jour arm.
              Probably differents what you find is similar, but to have your opinion you have
              to check only your body. take it easy!
