I was pleased to discover that we have birds nesting in our copper beech
tree this year.
Are there any sites with pictures and names to assist identification?
The parents look like what I would call doves. Light silver grey plumage
all over. Size a bit smaller than a pigeon and rather more elegant IMO.
Anyone help with positive ID please?

Collar doves perhaps?

If they sound like asthmatic cuckoos and have an IQ that would
embarass a glass of water then they're collar doves.
