Doves tend to make a "coo" sound. Some have longer calls than others, some repeating the sound over and over. It really depends on the species as to the exact call, as most have a very unique call.

Collard doves, for example, make a long "coo" sandwiched between two shorter "coos", sound something like "coo cooooo coo". Whereas rock pigdeons (also a member of the dove family) tend to make a singular short "coo" over and over, with a rolled effect, making it sound a little like a purr.

All the doves are well-renowned

For their sweetly calming cooing sound.
