Seychelles blue pigeon
The Seychelles blue pigeon (''Alectroenas pulcherrimus'') (also known as Seychelles blue fruit dove) is a medium-sized pigeon which inhabits woodland areas of the granitic Seychelles archipelago.
==Description==
The pigeon is about 10 inches (25 cm) in length. Its head and breast are silver-grey, and these feathers can be raised when the bird is excited, giving it a ruffled look. Its wings, under-body and tail are dark blue. It has a distinctive bright crimson patch of orbital skin extending from forehead to crown.〔Hume, J.P. 2011.

(Preview ) ISBN 978-1-86977-825-5 (paperback) ISBN 978-1-86977-826-2 (online edition)〕 Its bill is dull yellow and it has dark grey legs. The juvenile is very different, with a dark grey head and bib, dark greenish brown upperparts with pale yellow fringes, dark crown feathers with obvious green edges and a dark pink wattle around eye 〔Skerrett, A and Disley, T. 2011 Birds of Seychelles.
