About These Birds
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.
African Collared-dove
Small dove, 26–29 cm, pale pinkish-grey with a black hindneck collar and white tail corners. Native to arid zones of sub-Saharan Africa from Senegal to Somalia and south to Tanzania. The ancestor of the domesticated Barbary Dove (ring-necked dove). Granivore of grass seeds and small grains in dry savanna, farmland, and desert edge. Least Concern.
