  • Listen to 7 dove calls from Southern Africa. As with all doves, they puff their throat up and call with a closed beak. The Afrikaans names: Red-eyed Dove is Grootringduif, Laughing Dove is Lemoenduif, Cape Turtle Dove is Gewone tortelduif, African Mourning Dove is Rooioogtortelduif, Emerald-spotted Wood Dove is Grownvlekduifie, Tambourine Dove is Witborsduifie and Namaqua Dove is Namaquaduifie.

      Yes, always such a nice feeling when they are around. Often see the red eye and laughing together in Jeffrey's Bay area. Very nice as they aren't hostile towards each other.

    In the film Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, about an hour and a 29 minutes through, you can hear a call like the red-eyed dove's, although my resources say it's exclusively an African dove. Is there a species with a similar call in New Mexico, where the film was shot in 1973? A Bird Watching HQ site mentions 7 doves/pigeons in New Mexico: mourning dove (not Streptopelia decipiens), rock dove/pigeon, Eurasian collared dove, white-winged dove, band-tailed pigeon, Inca dove, common ground dove - no red-eyed doves.
