Summary ²

The Green Imperial Pigeon (Ducula aenea) is a large forest pigeon.
This is an arboreal dove, feeding on plant material in the tree canopy. Its flight is fast and direct, with the regular beats and an occasional sharp flick of the wings which are characteristic of pigeons in general. It builds a stick nest in a tree and lays a single white egg. The birds are not very gregarious, but will form small flocks.

ssp. aenea, Luzón, Mindanao. ³
