The pin-tailed green pigeon is a slender green pigeon with elongated central tail feathers. Males have a maroon back and orange breast, while females are mostly green. It ranges from the Himalayas through southern China into mainland Southeast Asia in hill and montane forest. Small parties move among fruiting trees, feeding especially on figs and other soft fruit and often remaining inconspicuous among foliage (Wikipedia, general species account). It is Nationally Least Concern (Thailand Red Data 2025).
