Spotted
The Orange-breasted Green-Pigeon is a stunning species, with males sporting a vibrant orange breast band and a lilac neck patch, making it easily distinguishable. Females are duller and predominantly green.
Where to spot
Found in lowland evergreen and deciduous forests, often near cultivation and in open woodlands. Look for them in areas with fruiting trees, especially figs, across South and Southeast Asia.
How to spot
Look for the male's striking orange breast and lilac patch. Listen for its characteristic soft, bubbling calls, often described as a 'laughter'. Scan the canopy and mid-story of fruiting trees where they typically feed.
When to spot
Active during daylight, particularly early morning and late afternoon when foraging. Can be observed year-round in its native range.

Their specialized beaks are perfectly adapted for plucking soft fruits and berries directly from branches, which form the bulk of their diet.
