Oriental Turtle Dove== when I saw it in a group of small doves,collerd doves it attracted me as the Color is Choclate and black border on wings impressed it like turtle . The lining # mark on its neck like chess board gives it beautiful look. Smaller than pigeon ,bigger than collered dove, likes woody area. I have also spotted it in Yamuna Bio Diversity Park besides Central Ridge. This bird is very shy very difficult to go near by , I have taken this photo after 3 days of chase. In the book of birds of Northen India Oxford press It is described as Not Common Passage Migrant, So I delighted more As presently it is avilable in Delhi,further I am keeping eye on it.======== Photo Last week Of OCTOBER2012 CENTRAL RIDGE , NEW DELHI < ===== Comments invited , PL SEE By Enlarging PHOTO
