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.

Tolima Dove

Medium dove, 26–29 cm, brown above with a grey head and pale underparts. Restricted to the Western Andes of Colombia in the department of Tolima. Inhabits humid montane forest. Poorly known and rarely observed. Endangered due to ongoing deforestation in its tiny restricted range.
