Shy Ground Dove

Small ground dove, 19–22 cm, with warm brown upperparts, a pale grey head, and whitish underparts. Shy and retiring, inhabiting dense lowland forest on Fiji, Samoa, and Tonga. Terrestrial forager of seeds and small fruits. Vulnerable due to forest loss and introduced predators on Pacific islands.
