What is a turtle?

Doves are a group of birds in the family Columbidae, which also includes pigeons. There are over
300 species of doves and pigeons found all over the world, in a wide variety of habitats. Doves
are generally smaller than pigeons, with slender bodies and short bills. Their plumage can be
gray, brown, white, or black, and some species have colorful markings.

Doves are herbivores, and their diet consists mainly of seeds, fruits, and berries. They are
monogamous birds, and pairs often mate for life. Doves build their nests out of twigs and leaves,
and they lay two eggs at a time. Both parents incubate the eggs and care for the young chicks.

Doves are often associated with peace and love, and they are often depicted in art and literature
as symbols of these qualities. This is likely due to their gentle nature and their monogamous
mating habits. Doves are also used in religious ceremonies in many cultures.

Here are some of the most common species of doves:

● Mourning dove
● Rock dove (also known as the common pigeon)
● Eurasian collared dove
● Ring-necked dove
● Spotted dove
● White-winged dove
● Turtledove

Doves are important members of the ecosystem, and they help to disperse seeds and control
insect populations. They are also a popular source of food for many other animals, including
hawks, owls, and foxes.

Doves are also popular pets, and many people enjoy keeping them in their homes. Doves are
relatively easy to care for, and they can make affectionate and loving companions. However, it is
important to research the specific needs of the type of dove you are considering before getting
one as a pet.
