Sombre Pigeon

Pinarochroa sordida

The Sombre Pigeon (Pinarochroa sordida) is a species of pigeon found in South America. It is characterized by its predominantly gray plumage with subtle iridescent green and purple hues on the neck and wing feathers. This medium-sized pigeon is known for its distinctive mournful call and can often be found in dense, humid forests and adjacent clearings. The Sombre Pigeon primarily feeds on seeds and fruits, foraging on the forest floor or in the lower canopy. While its population is currently stable, deforestation and habitat loss pose potential threats to its long-term survival.
