Nice shot of this Yellow-breasted Fruit Dove which I would consider the Philippines' most beautiful dove. Well done Nilo & Mabuhay.

Thank you for your comments Doc William, Tateo, Ramon, Ely and Onnie. All too often this bird is persecuted primarily because its big and beautiful.

Thanks for appreciating, Tina. I have countless (often close) encounters with this bird in different islands but often the situation does not offer a reasonable chance of a full body capture...
