We have several Barbary doves that hang around our place. This one by our gate was calling to another in a tree across the lane. 🐦

Ah, I've seen these doves in Europe and I had no idea what they were. I didn't know they were introduced to Aotearoa. Not sure I've seen them around here.

@lmika SOOOOOOO many creatures were introduced to Aotearoa. Australia must have had a huge number of imports too, given the European colonists. But at least you had predators for them, mainly.

Not for all of them, sadly. But it's true that there've been fair few imports here as well.
