I have found a part shell of a bird's egg in my drive, below a creeper-covered wall. It's all-white, not very big. Anyone any ideas what kind of bird lays all-white eggs? Cannot find any pics of birds' eggs on Google.

Collar doves
cool ..didn't realise that ... get them in my garden all the time..
The size will help. Yvonne has given you Collared Dove. This egg is smooth, glossy and measures 31mm x 24mm.

Another possibility is the House Martin which can have broods up until September. This egg is a lot smaller at 19mm x 13mm and although white like the CD is smooth, but non-glossy.

Thanks guys for your help. We don't have house martins but plenty of collared doves. The little tinkers!
