About Each Bird (Descriptions)
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ #}
Slender cuckoo-dove, 32–35 cm, uniform warm cinnamon-rufous with minimal barring and a relatively short tail. Restricted to Enggano Island off the southwestern coast of Sumatra. Inhabits dense lowland forest. Frugivore. Vulnerable due to extremely small range and ongoing forest loss on the island.
Medium dove, 27–30 cm, grey-brown overall with darker wings, a black half-collar on the neck, and a purplish-pink breast. Inhabits montane forest edge and highland scrub from Ethiopia and Eritrea south to Tanzania. Granivore of seeds and small grains. Overlaps with Mourning Collared-dove in parts of its range. Least Concern.
