Spotted
A small, elusive ground-dove characterized by its understated plumage, often found foraging on the forest floor. It is native to various islands in eastern Indonesia.
Where to spot
Found on several islands in the Moluccas and West Papua, Indonesia, including Buru, Seram, and Biak. Inhabits lowland and montane rainforests with dense undergrowth.
How to spot
Search dense forest undergrowth and listen for its distinctive, soft cooing calls. Its camouflage makes it difficult to spot, so patience and quiet observation are key.
When to spot
Most active during dawn and dusk hours, when it emerges to forage. Can be observed year-round within its range.

Despite its modest appearance, like many ground-doves, it plays an important ecological role in seed dispersal within its forest habitat.
