Those doves are not found in UK...but im fairly sure you will mean the collared dove, which can be shot, but the terms of the general licence must be adhered to mate. (which can be found on THL)

is it this??

 

not sure whether its a stock, or a young collared dove.

 

Dont think you can shoot stock doves, but collared doves are game, as said above.

You can shoot and eat collared doves but me thinks that’s a turtle dove.

And a partridge in a pear tree. You cant shoot them

If the trees are outside your garden and you dont have permission to shoot over the ground on which they stand you'll be in heaps of trouble if you get caught.

Looks like a young collared dove, no neck ring until mature.

Oh and they taste wonderful.

 

Here's a turtle dove...

 

And a stock dove, very similar to feral pigeon...

Might be wrong but looks like a barbary dove to me.

And obviously the pellets with stay within your boundries too.

Interesting...it looks just like a mourning dove that is a game bird here, the collared doves are considered an invasive species and so we can shoot as many as we want when ever we want.

 

What's a wood pigeon look like ? We don't have those...
