Identification
Distribution
Thes species, which is endemic to the island of Grenada is currently found in fragmented secondary forest with obvious problems in spreading from one patch to the next. The only larger area inhabited by the dove is the Mt Hartman reserve, currently under threat of development into a resort with golf club (except for 25% that will remain a national park, it seems) Notice the link below, which gives some more background.
