Spotted
A localized ground-dwelling pigeon found only on the Sula Islands of Indonesia. Similar in appearance to other ground-doves, it is a shy inhabitant of forest undergrowth.
Where to spot
Endemic to the Sula Islands (Mangole, Taliabu, Sanana) in Indonesia, preferring dense lowland rainforest and secondary growth.
How to spot
Due to its secretive nature, observing this bird requires quiet movement and patience in dense forest. Focus on the forest floor and listen for subtle rustling or soft coos.
When to spot
Best sought during early morning or late afternoon when it might be foraging. It is present year-round within its small range.

Its extremely restricted range makes it a species of conservation concern and a highly sought-after sighting for birdwatchers visiting the Sula Islands.
