Carrying an extremely vibrant plumage, this pigeon seems to have nothing in common with the city living cousin. Judging by its green, pink, blue and yellow feathers it is pretty easy to guess where its name coming from. However, don’t be rush to spot such magical pigeon in New York City, because you might be disappointed. And that because the rainbow pigeon lives in Southeast Asia, mostly in the mangroves forests.
Unlikely their cousins that live in crowded cities and eat mostly everything, these multicolored pigeons are very selective when it comes to their diet which is based on fruits and seeds.
