Treron calvus

The African green dove is stout and strong, with a short, thick neck and a two-colored beak, namely a red beak with a white tip. The green body flashes from grey-green to yellow-green, and there are purplish-red patches on the shoulder of the wings. Other green doves generally have yellow feet, while African green doves have red feet.

The African green dove is found in central and southern Africa (including the southern part of the Arabian Peninsula and the entire continent south of the Sahara Desert (Tropic of Cancer)). The African green dove is generally found in about 39 African countries south of the Sahara Desert.

The behavior of the African Green Pigeon (Latin name: Treron calvus, English: African Green Pigeon) is unknown.

The African green dove is more timid and is seen hiding in high foliage. Figs are their favorite food, and their green wings are an effective camouflage when hiding in fruit trees. Breeding occurs from May to February, with males finding materials and females building nests, laying 1-2 eggs, which take about 13 days to hatch. The nests are never left unattended during the breeding season, so they are model parents.

Protect wild animals and eliminate wild meat.
