Thanks Dan.

We have several species of doves/pigeons all of which have easily identifiable calls but I wouldn't say any are really irritating. The guinea fowl make a hell of a racket at dawn & dusk. We have so many bird species I thing we become immune. I know city pigeons can be a nuisance & I've heard about mourning doves. The larger Rock Pigeon (Kranzduif) is an agricultural pest, replacing the feral city pigeons in the rural areas. Large flocks can devastate sunflower crops.

Interesting image and nice description.

ARe the doves as noisy as they are in the Northern Hemisphere?  Hawaii has
two species of mourning doves, and they cause a racket almost everywhere,
especially at dawn and twilight.  Several years back, a pair of mourning
doves nested under the air conditioner outside our bedroom, and disturbed
our sleep until I finally put a little fencing around the area.

Doves arrive (like Jackals) after the Guinea Fowl have eaten their fill.
The large ones with neck-bands are a Cape Turtle Dove & a red Eyed Dove.
The smaller ones, by far the most common, are Laughing Doves. As you can
see, my lawn is in desperate need on rain.
