ThylacineAlive 31 Jul 2014 This is the other photo I have of the bird showing a bit of the face. ~Thylo
mstickmanp 31 Jul 2014 I don't see Ornate at all and it looks more like a female Jambu to me with the dull purple head. Here is a shot from the Philadelphia zoo I found online: http://www.taenos.com/img/hr/pt/ptilinopus-jambu/tilopo jambú-5.jpg

Chlidonias 1 Aug 2014 yes it is a Jambu fruit dove I think. The "spots" aren't a normal part of the plumage, it has a problem with its feathers - perhaps it is young or has had a medical issue.
