Common Wood Pigeon
sepelkyyhky · Columba palumbus
Family: Columbidae (Kyyhkyt) · Size: 38–43 cm
The common wood pigeon, also known simply as the wood pigeon, is a large pigeon native to the western Palearctic. It belongs to the genus Columba, which includes closely related species such as the rock dove. It has a flexible diet, feeding mainly on plant material, including cereals, and is therefore considered an agricultural pest. Wood pigeons are extensively hunted over much of their range, but this does not appear to have a major impact on their population numbers.
