About These Birds

Sulu Bleeding-heart

Small ground dove, 22–25 cm, with brown and grey plumage and a red breast spot. Known only from the Sulu Archipelago in the southern Philippines, with very few modern records. Inhabits lowland forest remnants. Critically Endangered (possibly Extinct) due to near-total forest loss and hunting pressure in the Sulu Islands.

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.
