About These Birds

Grey-capped Emerald Dove

Small, brilliant dove, 23–27 cm; male has iridescent emerald-green back and wings, grey crown, white forehead streak, and pinkish-brown breast. Widespread in forest, bamboo, and dense woodland from South Asia through Southeast Asia to China and the Andamans. Granivore and frugivore on the forest floor. Least Concern.

Enggano Cuckoo-Dove

Slender cuckoo-dove, 32–35 cm, uniform warm cinnamon-rufous with minimal barring and a relatively short tail. Restricted to Enggano Island off the southwestern coast of Sumatra. Inhabits dense lowland forest. Frugivore. Vulnerable due to extremely small range and ongoing forest loss on the island.
