The Pale Mountain-Pigeon is a large, distinctive mountain-pigeon found in the Solomon Islands, characterized by its pale head and breast contrasting with darker body plumage. It inhabits montane forests.
Where to spot
Montane forests of the Solomon Islands.
How to spot
Scan the canopy of montane forests or observe flocks flying high over valleys. Binoculars are helpful for identifying its pale head and breast, especially against the green backdrop.
When to spot
Year-round, most active during the day, particularly during early morning and late afternoon.
Its pale coloration may offer a degree of camouflage against the bright tropical sky when viewed from below, similar to some white imperial-pigeons, helping it blend into the intense sunlight of its habitat.
