Spotted
A rare and elusive pigeon species native to Southeast Asia, known for its striking silvery-grey plumage. It primarily inhabits coastal and lowland evergreen forests.
Where to spot
Historically found in coastal areas and islands of Southeast Asia, including parts of Indonesia (Sumatra, Java) and Malaysia. Current range is highly restricted and fragmented.
How to spot
Focus on remaining patches of primary coastal forest or mangrove areas. Patience and luck are crucial. Look for its distinctive silvery-grey head and underparts contrasting with darker wings. Report any sightings to conservation authorities.
When to spot
Very rare, but if encountered, typical bird activity times (early morning, late afternoon) are best. Patience is paramount due to its rarity.
This species is critically endangered, primarily due to habitat loss and hunting, making sightings extremely rare and significant for conservation efforts and understanding its remaining populations.
