Hi, The attached photos are of a pigeon that came into our bird feeder yesterday (in Wamboin), and hung around for a few hours. I have no idea what it is - it has the size and jizz of an imperial or mountain pigeon but I can't identify it from the references I have access to. It looks a bit like the Buru Mountain-Pigeon but I can't imagine there'd be too many of those in Australia! I assume it's an aviary escapee, though I hadn't realised this type of pigeon was even kept in aviaries. Any ideas? David Attachment:
