A stunning closeup of this Dove and so nicely captured.

If you do a Google search for "laughing dove call" you should get some samples of their call.

These really are such pretty wee doves Jp... I didn't hear one 'laughing' either, when I was in Oz.

A super picture this my friend. Excellent work lad.
