The haunts of the Stock Dove are in more or less open country, for though it often nests in trees it prefers parklands to thick woods. It is common on coasts where the cliffs provide holes. Its flight is quick, performed by regular beats, with an occasional sharp flick of the wings, characteristic of pigeons in general. It perches well, and in nuptial display walks along a horizontal branch with swelled neck, lowered wings, and fanned tail. More

The Stock Dove is mostly blue-grey with a pinkish breast and an iridescent green patch on the side of the neck.

The bill is yellowish and the legs are pink. More
