Description
Discover the charming beauty of the Cape (Masked) Doves, also known as Namaqua Doves, a small and elegant species renowned for their distinctive appearance and unique behaviors. Known for their melodious call, these doves produce a long, two-parted "hoo-oooooo" that is often repeated, adding a tranquil and rhythmic sound to their environment. These long-tailed doves are a striking addition to any avian collection or birdwatching habitat.
Male Cape Doves are easily recognizable by their striking black mask, vibrant bill, and bright rufous wings that come to life during flight. Females, on the other hand, have a plain head and a dark bill, making the sexes distinguishable at a glance.
