About These Birds
Rock Pigeon
The rock pigeon is the ancestor of all domestic pigeon breeds and one of the most abundant birds in cities worldwide. Pigeons have served humans as messengers, food, and subjects for scientific research — their homing ability and vision have been studied extensively. Darwin's study of pigeon breeding contributed to his theory of evolution.
Orange-breasted Green-pigeon
Medium green-pigeon, 27–30 cm; male has an orange breast and a lilac-purple neck band bounded by yellow, with green upperparts; female is plainer green. Found in dry and moist deciduous forest from India and Sri Lanka to Myanmar, Thailand, and Indochina. Frugivore of figs and berries. Least Concern.
