Collared doves?

I see them around town at Lebanon but never anywhere else too much,maybe now and then. I've never shot one and never seen one killed. I read somewhere they were one day gonna be as common as starlings.
 
I have shot 1 a few years ago down in Mcminn county, have only seen a handful over the years and it's always been down that way. none in Knox county or north of there
 
I saw several in Jefferson County during the last few years I worked especially on the north side of the county.
I have some that nest around my house. Their call is different. They also cross with mourning doves.
 
I see them while walking around my subdivision quite often. Maury County.
that is where I have seen the most of them. Walking in my neighborhood in Rutherford Co. They aren't afraid and you can get close enough to realize something is off and then you see the black ring on their neck.
 
Most I have ever seen was in one of @Chaneylake fields.
"Flying school buses" 😂
After I heard him call them that I was like yep that's what they look like 😆
