The Bare-eyed Pigeon (Patagioenas corensis) is a medium-sized pigeon species found in the northern regions of South America. It has a distinctive appearance with a pale gray body, pinkish undertail coverts, and a bare, bluish-gray eye ring. These pigeons are often found in lowland tropical forests, particularly in areas with abundant fruiting trees. They are known for their distinctive cooing calls and are often seen in small flocks. The Bare-eyed Pigeon plays a key role in seed dispersal within its habitat, contributing to the diversity and regeneration of the forest ecosystem.
