More helpful on your part would be helpful. Like, what country are you in, what time of year, is it alive?

It's very clearly a white bird with its eyes closed.

Agree with both Download and look close. Wound under wing, glazed eyes. Iooks like maybe a ring at back of neck. It may be a ringed turtle dove. An escaped cage bird.. Bill

Bob, you have a picture of the dove posted 20 May. It is misIDed as a mourning dove.There must be a breeding population there. It is also called Barbary dove. From Africa- ?

Last word. Did any of you that offered frivolous comments to someone asking for help even LOOK CLOSE at the photo?

You're RIGHT. It is a white cat, not a bird at all.

Do you think Bob is not capable of speaking for himself? Not cool.
