Observation details
At 5:53 PM, both began calling from north hillside just above the trail in canyon behind homes at Chert & Cameo. Observed both as they flew off the hillside then above me at a distance of about 30 feet while continuing to call. They flew north along the base of the hill and landed back in the bushes along the trail. In the failing light, the color of the birds was difficult to see, but seemed to be a dark brownish/gray. They were plump, medium size birds (larger than Mourning Doves), with large heads and a rounded tail. The wings were wide and rounded. Recording attached.
