Watch the Nicobar Pigeon’s iridescent feathers change color depending on the angle of sunlight, reflecting shades of blue, green, gold, and red! Native to islands of southeast Asia and Oceania, it is thought by some to be the closest living relative to the extinct Dodo. Nicobar Pigeons feed on seeds and fruits, and build nests of loose sticks in densely forested areas. You can visit this species in our Birds of Paradise aviary! | Sylvan Heights Bird Park
