Life in Newburgh on Ythan

Not on speaking terms?

The pair of collared doves Streptopelia decaocto who share their garden with us don't seem to be on speaking terms this morning.

Collared doves are now a common UK species with about 1 million breeding pairs distributed throughout the land. However, they are recent immigrants having arrived in Norfolk in the 1950s following a rapid expansion across Europe from the Middle East. Mrs May has yet to pronounce on whether they will be allowed to stay following Brexit.
