Where to spot
Woodlands, parks, agricultural areas with scattered trees, and urban green spaces across Europe, western Asia, and North Africa.
How to spot
Look for its uniform bluish-grey plumage, darker eye, and the absence of a white rump patch. The two black wing bars are much less distinct than on a Rock Dove. Listen for its low, soft 'ooo-uh-ooo' call.
When to spot
Year-round in most of its range, with some migratory movements in northern areas. Most active during daylight.

Stock Doves typically nest in tree hollows, old woodpecker holes, or even rabbit burrows, preferring cavities over building open nests like many other pigeon and dove species.
