Ryukyu Green Pigeon - Treron permagnus Jerome Chie-Jen Ko 2025-06-17 Kunigami, Kunigami District, Okinawa, Kunigami (Japan) (170 m) song -

Typical song between 500-1000 Hz, with three notes in this record. It had been singing for a while, but I only managed to record this last part before it flew off. There were at least two individuals. The forest was super quiet, hence I got a very high quality recording. But as soon as I started recording, a swarm of mosquitoes rushed toward us, forcing us to retreat as fast as we could.
