[birdky] Collared Dove in Richmond

On my walk over to EKU campus this morning, I spotted an Eurasian Collared Dove feeding on the ground with a mourning dove. It was located at the dead end of south 3rd st, just as you enter the park. (the park is on the corner of Lancaster ave. and Crabbe st.) They were both feeding in a gravel area, spooked as I approached and flew just overhead into a tree. The EUCD was slightly larger and slightly lighter colored than the mourning dove, as well as having the characteristic square-tipped tail and 'collar' on the neck.
