Australian Crested Pidgeon 



Mated pair of Australian Crested Pidgeons (Ocyphaps lophotes).

Mundane as Australian suburbia might be, we often do get interesting visitors. This web page contains a selection of recent suburban wildlife pictures of interest.

The Crested Pidgeon (Ocyphaps lophotes) is an Australian species common across most of the continent, and increasing seen in the suburbs of major cities. These attractive birds are very social and mated pairs frequently display affection. Other than the distinctive crest, these birds are also notable by their iridiscent wing panels.
