Pied Imperial Pigeon
Pied Imperial Pigeon is found in abundance at Berjaya Resort at Lalang Beach. They colonised the Pulau Renggis just 300m out from Lalang jetty They gather in the hundreds during dusk and fly into the forest at dawn in several flocks at a time. It is quite spectacular.
Pulau Renggis was also reported to house the Frigate birds but none were sighted when I was there.
These pigeons were hunted by the villagers at one time but less I hope now when tourism and business boom in the island. Size is 40 cm all in white with black tip feathers to the wings and tail
