Stock Dove

On the upperwing in photo 0100 you see a short dark bar/spot in the arm , typical of stock dove.
Also , though juvenile wood pigeons yet miss the white neck ring, they already have the white patch in the wing as the adult wood pigeons:
Furthermore stock dove in body proportions looks closer to rock pigeon /feral pigeon than to wood pigeon.
So , as said already , yours is a stock dove
