Media notes
Same bird as in ML98693731, where with a Eur. Collared-Dove. Neither bird vocalized, as far as I am aware.
Observation details
I think this qualifies as African (roseogrisea), not "Ringed Turtle-Dove," due to slimness but overall heft. Note pale color overall (image is a bit light-blasted, cf. adjacent Eur. Collared-Dove), primaries nearly concolor with dorsum, crissum concolor with vent and belly, outer web white. Base of rectrices was black, as is normal on roseogrisea (base of rectrices often white or pale on "Ringed").
