About These Birds

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.

Bruce's Green-pigeon

Large green-pigeon, 30–33 cm, bright yellow-green with a grey head, yellow eye-ring, and pinkish-yellow bill. Found in dry woodland and savanna across the Sahel and savanna zone of Africa from Senegal to Ethiopia. Frugivore of wild figs and berries in the forest canopy. Least Concern.
