The White Doves of Redvers Road

Forget leucism and albinism. A rather preposterous idea on my part as it turns out. Today, two White Doves appeared on my bird table, the ID confirmed as one of the two was a Fan-tailed White Dove. It does however beg the question - where are they from? White Doves are domesticated, often kept as 'pets'. These two are availing themselves of the ample amount of food available in my garden, much to the disgust of many other local garden birds!

Something of a mystery....
