Grey-cheeked Green Pigeon

Treron griseicauda

The Grey-cheeked Green Pigeon, Treron griseicauda, is a charming bird that graces the skies of Indonesia. With a plumage that is predominantly green, it is a sight to behold as it flutters amidst the foliage.

Identification Tips

This species can be recognized by its grey cheeks, a distinctive feature that sets it apart from other green pigeons. Observers should also note the bird's overall green coloration, which allows it to blend seamlessly with the verdant environment.

Habitat

The Grey-cheeked Green Pigeon is known to inhabit the lush forests of Indonesia, where it can find ample food and shelter.

Distribution

Endemic to Indonesia, this bird has made the rich, tropical forests its exclusive home.

Behaviour

Local people in Java have observed the Grey-cheeked Green Pigeon and have developed a hunting technique using nylon, known as racik, to capture this avian wonder.

Diet and Feeding

Fruit comprises the bulk of this pigeon's diet, with a particular fondness for figs. This dietary preference has a significant impact on the bird's foraging behavior and habitat selection.

Conservation status

The IUCN Red List categorizes the Grey-cheeked Green Pigeon as Least Concern, indicating that, for now, the species does not face an immediate threat of extinction.

Clean and easy to use
Really enjoying this app, it's clean and easy to use. I love the ease of being able to add those one-off birds without starting a whole checklist. I also like the social aspect, like the parts of my Facebook I like, without the ads and junk, just birds. Can't wait to see it become more populated.
