The Sivas Kumru Güvercin or Sivas Dove Pigeon is a rather petite pigeon originated from Turkey. It belongs to the voice pigeons family and is mostly kept in the Sivas region of the country. One of its main characteristics is the unique and distinctive high-pitched sound it makes. It is one of the smallest breeds of pigeons in the world today, with adults weighing less than 250 grams (7 ounces).

There are many other breeds of pigeons with its own unique singing style. To name a few there are the English Trumpeter, the Arabian Trumpeter, Bokhara Trumpeter, Dresden Trumpeter, Altenburger Trumpeter, Franconian Trumpeter and so on. Each of these breeds have its own unique singing style with a common 'trumpeting' ability that varies in pitch degrees.
