Cooka-loo!

'n Tortelduifie in 'n Kaapstadse munisipale parkie afgeneem. A Cape Turtle Dove resting in a tree in a park in Cape Town, South Africa. Die Gewone Tortelduif (Streptopelia capicola) word so genoem na aanleiding van die geluid wat hy maak: die Nederlanders het gesê hy "tortelen". Streptopelia capicola beteken kraag- (streptos) duif (peleia) en inwoner van die Kaap (capicola). The Ring-necked Dove (Streptopelia capicola), also known as the Cape Turtle Dove and the Half-Collared Dove, is a widespread and abundant bird in the bush, savannah, farmlands, and woodlands of southern and eastern Africa. Their name comes from a black patch of feathers on the back of their necks. The rest of their feathers are a pale brownish-grey, with darker colors on their backs. They also have white tips on the end of their tail feathers. Their usual call is a monotonous and high-pitched crooning sound, 'Cooka-loo' which they repeat ten to thirty times.
