IMGP1615-Brown Cuckoo Dove.

The Brown Cuckoo-Dove was once called the ‘Pheasant-tailed Pigeon’ because of its long tail, which is sometimes used as a counterbalance or as a support when foraging in the treetops, especially when hanging upside down or making some other acrobatic manoeuvre to reach a distant fruit or berry.
