RE: All Doves Are Grey…

My first guess would be a"bydue" (Columba livia var. domestica), since these can come in lots of different color variations, but it seem to lack the black spot/stripe on the back, so it is probably another species. But it does not really fit the other species in Norway neither.. I hope someone else manages to identify it, because now I am curious to find out what it is.

If you don't get an answer here, then it might be worth making a post on Spør en biolog, and they can probably tell you.

You are probably correct, and it does look a lot like the others except the aberrant color pattern. But thanks for the link, and I will probably post the pictures and see if I get some answers.
