Common Bronzewing Pigeon

According to my bird book, these are common across almost all of Australia. I must have been missing something, as I don't recall previously seeing one! Even better, this one decided to give a display of its wing feathers. Other images in the PiPs.

Thanks, Udo. It had been napping on the lawn and I think that was something of a stretch and yawn before looking for food. :-)

Very obvious reason for its name. A beautiful bird even if common.

Hi George
I like this picture very much!
It is a very different bird for us. We only have very common pigeons!
Fantastic colours too
Best Wishes, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!

Por Europa no se ven, pero según me informo es la “Phaps chalcoptera”, paloma bronce común, de la familia Columbidae, nativa de los bosques del sur de Australia y Tasmania.

A great series!

Nice shot, George. I have a pair which visit my garden every day, always together, constantly emitting gentle cooing sounds. When they take off there is a real whirr from their wings rather like the sound of a sewing machine. Lovely birds and yours are lovely pictures.
