About These Birds

Sclater's Crowned-pigeon

Large crowned-pigeon, 66–73 cm, with blue-grey body, a deep maroon breast, and a fan-shaped blue crest with lacy blue-grey tips rather than white. Found in lowland forests of southern New Guinea between the ranges of the other southern crowned species. Terrestrial frugivore. Vulnerable due to hunting and forest loss.

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.
