Tourterelle à collier des Philippines

Streptopelia dusumieri

Une colombe brunâtre avec un court collier de grandes écailles sombres, une tête grise et un reflet rosâtre sur le cou et la poitrine. Originaire des Philippines, où elle est maintenant en déclin et peu commune ; assez commune dans son aire d'introduction (Guam et les îles Mariannes du Nord). Elle privilégie les forêts ouvertes et les lisières dans son aire d'origine ; souvent présente dans les villes où elle a été introduite. Elle émet un "cOO-cuh-COO" fort et quelque peu mélancolique.

Identification

EBird describes the bird as "Brownish dove with a short collar of large dark scales, a gray head, and a pinkish flush on the neck and breast. Native to the Philippines , where now declining and uncommon; fairly common in introduced range Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. Favors open forest and edges in its native range; often in towns and cities where introduced. Gives a loud, somewhat melancholy 'cOO-cuh-COO'."<p>Breeding has been recorded in March and May in the Philippines.

Its main threat is heavy interspecific competition from spotted doves and red collared doves.<p>Conservation actions proposed to clarify nature and extent of threat from spotted doves and red collared doves are identification of remaining strongholds, monitoring of population trends, and assessment of desirability and feasibility of the control of competing species.
