Pink-spotted Fruit Dove

Ptilinopus perousii

The Pink-spotted Fruit Dove, also known as the Pink-bellied Imperial Pigeon, is a species of fruit dove found in the Pacific islands. It is characterized by its vibrant pink and green plumage, with distinct pink spots on its underparts. These birds are primarily frugivorous, feeding on a variety of fruits and berries in the forest canopy. They are known for their soft, melodious calls, often heard echoing through the dense vegetation. Pink-spotted Fruit Doves are typically found in tropical and subtropical moist lowland forests, where they forage and nest in the dense foliage. While not currently considered threatened, they may face habitat loss and potential predation by invasive species.
