A few days ago, Eric Finley asked whether White-headed Pigeons are unusual at close to 1000m in the Blue Mountains. They are certainly more of a lower-altitude species here, but do sometimes occur in the upper mountains, e.g. Katoomba Falls, and Blackheath. They are one of those birds that appear to be increasing their range due to the abundance of fruit-bearing weed plants.

Cheers,

Carol
