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.
Palau Ground Dove
Small ground dove, 20–23 cm, with brown upperparts, a pale grey or whitish forehead and face, and buff-white underparts. Endemic to Palau in Micronesia, inhabiting dense forest and thickets. Terrestrial frugivore and granivore. Vulnerable due to the small island range and introduced predators.
