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.

Tuxtla Quail-Dove

Medium quail-dove, 25–28 cm, with brown upperparts, grey head and neck, rufous breast, and pale facial stripe. Confined to cloud forest and humid montane forest in Veracruz and adjacent Oaxaca, Mexico. Terrestrial forager of seeds and fruits. Endangered due to extreme range restriction and continuous cloud-forest loss.
