The Palau Ground Dove is a shy and elusive pigeon endemic to the island nation of Palau. It is a species of conservation concern due to its restricted range.
Where to spot
Endemic to the islands of Palau (Caroline Islands), where it inhabits dense primary and secondary forests.
How to spot
Requires significant patience and quiet movement in dense forest environments. Listen for its characteristic calls and scan the undergrowth and leaf litter. It can be quite secretive.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most likely observed during the cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late afternoon, when it might be foraging on the forest floor.
Its conservation status is largely impacted by habitat loss and the presence of introduced predators, making focused conservation efforts crucial for its survival.
