Today a Wompoo Fruit-Dove sat quietly in the figtree opposite my office, certain that I could not see him/her. Despite their size and bright colours, they are very hard to spot amongst the foliage. I love the deep wom-poo call they make, and I sometimes call back to them, though I know I’m not fooling anyone… Image and video below.
Here is a short video I took today.
If you cannot see the video, watch on YouTube here.
Wowok-woooo
wowok
WOWOK-WOOOOO
(That means ‘very good’ in Wompoo Fruit-Dove speak)
