Comments | A very attractive little dove, which we saw quite often during our trip. They are common in western Peru, up to about 2800m on west slope of Andes. Birds of Peru by Schulenberg et al. describe it's call as "a very undovelike series of flatulent notes" which describes it admirably - sounds a lot like a frog (a farting frog ...) |
