I think so too except for the whitish grayish head which is a description of the Black Chinned though the black chin is not there. So I was thinking maybe a female but I think you're right Idol Tins, that it's an Emerald. Thanks for the ID. |

Wooohoo nice catch...the bird must have seen the exhibit and wanted it's photo included. I still haven't got a good photo of this bird!! and it was just on a tree beside Vargas Museum!!
Agree with Tina - Emerald Dove (Chalcophaps indica)

I also agree with the Mastah that it is a male Emerald Dove. |
