Meet The White-headed Pigeon – The Most Beautiful Pigeon In The World (13 Pics)

A distinctively-plumaged, large species of pigeon, the White-headed Pigeon is Australia's only native extant representative of the widespread Columba genus. Birds have a white head and body and dark grey wings and tail and are easy to identify. Somewhat gregarious, flocks of up to a dozen are not uncommon, with counts of as many as 40 birds reported. This species is best described as locally common and localised within Brisbane, although it may be more widespread in the north west than current data suggest.
