Title: Pigeon or ?

I noticed this one today. I think it's a pigeon but I'm not sure. Taken from quite a distance away at 6x zoom.

Any other opinions?

Did a double take at first but I think it is definitely a wood pigeon

Got me beat - that striped tail and plain creamy breast is odd.

Deffo a Wood Pigeon this. Here's a picture that shows off the tail a bit better - not my picture, I 'liberated' it from the Net.
