White-naped Pigeon

Columba albinucha

The White-naped Pigeon (Columba albinucha) is a species of pigeon found in the forests and woodlands of Southeast Asia. It is characterized by its distinctive white nape and iridescent green and purple plumage. This medium-sized pigeon feeds on fruits, seeds, and small invertebrates, and is known for its gentle cooing calls. The White-naped Pigeon is often observed in pairs or small flocks, foraging in the canopy of dense forests. While not currently considered threatened, habitat loss and hunting pose potential risks to its populations.
