Pigeons, alongside with Doves form the family of 'Columbidae' birds. They live all over the world in a wide range of geographical ranges but are most well known due to their their prevalence in urban areas.

∙ 8y agoBecause they are birds. There is no true scientific difference between 'pigeons' and 'doves'. While the smaller pigeons often get called 'doves', this is fairly inconsistent. The family can be split into two different groups, but this is based more on their ecology and diet. There are those pigeons that feed on seeds (usually duller coloured, ground-dwelling pigeons), and those that feed on fruit (more striking, aboreal species). The Daintree area has a diverse group of pigeons, with representatives of both types of pigeons, although many species are heard more often than seen.
