Smaller than a kumru.Β 

These were shipped here from India about 40 years ago and released in Dubai so they could thrive.

They also introduced the kumru to the region, around 5 years ago.Β 

The kumru being the larger dove would occasionally attack the smaller brown ones, destroy their eggs and takeover their nests.

As a result the brown dove population is dwindling while the kumru is thriving.Β

Should it ever make it into the mainstream, I hope some far-off future dictionary will make a honorary mention on my behalf.
