An Oriental Turtle Dove taking bath

This dove is a rare bird in our region and I had only one sighting before. Annually, there are maybe 3-4 sightings in our state.
But in the place we travelled, they are quite common and found in plenty. They are a large dove species and always found in flocks just like other doves across the country. We found several around the trees surrounding our hotel.
Many thanks in advance for the faves and feedback.
