This little one is some type of green pigeon. If anyone knows the name, I'd appreciate the refresher. He lives in Disney's Animal Kingdom park. They really have a lot of nice birds there. Photo taken in August 2010.

Guess I'm gonna have to go to Animal Kingdom!
ReplyDeleteI've never even heard of green pigeons! But, if you say so... ;-)
I can't help you with an ID on this one, but maybe Disney can.
ReplyDeleteA very interesting bird. It certainly blends in with the oak tree! I have no idea what it is. Do you know where it is from?
ReplyDeleteLarry: The birdkeeper at Disney told me what it was, but I don't recall the name. I know it's some kind of pigeon. An emerald pigeon, I think. Normally it would make its home in India, I believe.
ReplyDeleteAnd he's actually perched on a palm leaf! :)
What a cute find!
