Portrait of a Nicobar pigeon (Caloenas nicobarica)

Iridescent colours in the plumage of a Southeast Asian Nicobar pigeon (Caloenas nicobarica).
The Nicobar Pigeon is one of the most beautiful of the many species of pigeons or doves and is the only living member of the genus Caloenus. It is found in the Islands of Nicobar, south west peninsular Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Solomans and palau. Once known to be found in abundance in its range, their numbers in the wild are declining as they are frequently captured for pet trade and hunted for food
