The Coroneted Fruit-dove (Ptilinopus coronulatus) is a beautiful and relatively widespread fruit-dove found across the island of New Guinea. It is characterized by its distinctive patterned crown.
Where to spot
Inhabits lowland rainforests, gallery forests, and forest edges across much of New Guinea, from sea level up to moderate elevations.
How to spot
Look for its striking crown pattern, which is often purplish or reddish, contrasting with its green body. Listen for its soft, deep cooing calls that echo through the forest.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours, often seen feeding in the canopy, particularly during early morning and late afternoon when foraging for fruit.
