Our most common dove is all grey with a black stripe on its neck https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/2969-Streptopelia-decaocto and lives commonly in towns and villages. The other one that lives in the Czech Republic is much prettier but shy and rarer https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/2938-Streptopelia-turtur
