Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

A common fruit-dove from the canopy of lowland, foothill forest and disturbed areas. Yellow-green cap with white band from the bill around the back of the neck, orange-brown chest and distinctive pink spots on the dark green wing. Congregates in fruiting fig trees. Similar to the eastern race of Ornate Fruit-Dove, but Pink-spotted lacks the dark red shoulder wedge and has a green tail tip. Call, a slow, rising hoot, or series of shorter “woop” notes accelerating and trailing off.
