Sadly the common European dove is being more and more scarce, following the same path than the migratory pigeon. The Eurasian collared dove or Turkish dove is invasive, but spreading naturally. They don't overlap.

As they suffer predation by magpies, the more spikes that humans put in the nest, the more attractive became to nest on it, it seems.



I haven't seen a European turtle dove in Poland in my life. Never once.


Neither me. Is a shy Mediterranean species, usually rare in the North but in decline also in the South. Heavily hunted while in migration.
