The pink-headed fruit dove (Ptilinopus porphyreus) is endemic to the higher altitude mountain forests of Sumatra, Java and Bali in Indonesia. This rather shy dove feeds mainly on figs, small fruits and berries in the upper canopy of the forest. It is also known by the name Temminck's fruit pigeon.

July 12, 2017 - Pink-headed Fruit-dove, Pink-necked Fruit-dove, or Temminck's Fruit Pigeon (Ptilinopus porphyreus)

These fruit doves are found only in mountain forests of Sumatra, Java, and Bali in Indonesia. They eat figs, other fruits, and berries, foraging in the upper canopy, usually alone or in pairs. Males build flimsy twig nests in trees. Both parents incubate the eggs and feed the chicks. Though they are classified as a species of Least Concern by the IUCN, their population is likely in decline due to habitat destruction.
