  The Sri Lanka green pigeon (Treron pompadora) is a pigeon in the genus Treron. In Sri Lanka, this bird and several other green pigeon are known as bata goya in the Sinhala language.[2] It is found in the forests of Sri Lanka. Many authorities split the species from the pompadour green pigeon complex.   Range map from www.oiseaux.net - Ornithological Portal Oiseaux.net

Behaviour The Sri Lanka green pigeon usually occurs singly or in small groups. Its flight is fast and direct, with the regular beats and an occasional sharp flick of the wings that are characteristic of pigeons in general. It eats the seeds and fruits of a wide variety of plants. It builds a stick nest in a tree and lays two white eggs. Listen to the Sri Lanka Green pigeon
