Birding In Taiwan - Red Collared-Dove

Red Collared-Dove Streptopelia tranquebarica

The Red Collared-Dove or Red Turtle-Dove is
a small (23 cm) dove in which the male has a bluish gray head, a prominent
black collar on the nape and vinaceous-red mantle, back, wing-coverts and
underparts. The flight feathers are black, the tail is grayish centrally
and blackish on the sides, with the outermost pair of feathers having white
edges. The undertail coverts are white, the bill is black or dark grayish
and the legs and feet are purplish black or purplish red. The female looks
quite different: she is drab brown where the male is vinaceous-red, and
brownish gray on the head.
