About These Birds

Rodrigues Turtle-dove

Extinct Mascarene dove, known only from subfossil remains discovered on Rodrigues Island. It was a medium-sized, ground-dwelling pigeon related to the Pink Pigeon. Likely became extinct in the 17th or 18th century following human settlement, introduced predators, and habitat clearance on the small island.

Adamawa Turtle-dove

Medium dove, 27–30 cm, with warm rufous-brown upperparts, a black neck collar, and a deep orange-red breast. Endemic to the highland plateaus and montane grasslands of northern Nigeria and Cameroon. Granivore of grass seeds and cultivated grains. Poorly studied and localised range. Least Concern.
