About These Birds
New Britain Bronzewing
Medium-large terrestrial pigeon, 30–33 cm, similar to New Guinea Bronzewing but with a white head (not just forehead). Confined to lowland forests of New Britain in the Bismarck Archipelago. Feeds on seeds and fallen fruits on the forest floor. Least Concern.
Polynesian Ground Dove
Small ground dove, 20–23 cm, with grey and brown plumage, dark reddish flight feathers, and white-tipped tail. Native to French Polynesia; extinct on many islands but survives in remnant populations on Moorea, Mopelia, and a few other atolls. Critically Endangered due to introduced rats, cats, and habitat loss.
