Answer 1

I've lived amongst them for years, nice nieghbors.

Answer 2

I'd have thought Mourning Dove here in the Northest US. [audubon.org]

But I agree with @Robecology - that ring around the neck means they are something else.

If they're like our Doves they are birds that will come to feeders and boy are they noisy!

I didn't know there was something so similar - I will have to pay close attention come Winter to what's actually visiting my feeder!

Answer 3

I think that's the relatively rare "Eurasian Collared Dove" which is a recent import and is expanding quickly across America.
