Ring-necked Dove
In one of the BBC's Tweet of the Day features, David Attenborough describes the call of the Eurasian Collared Dove as resembling a bored football fan chanting U-nit-ed, U-nit-ed. The Ring-necked Dove, who is in the same genus, sounds similar. Our guide said that some people in Africa think the three-note call sounds like Work Hard-er, Work Hard-er, while others think the bird is saying Drink Lag-er, Drink Lag-er. This one was near our Naitola campsite.
