Description Taken at Melbourne Zoo. I forgot to write down the name of it, so if someone knows, please feel free to tell me. The golden colour in its wing feathers was really quite amazing.

Canon 40D, 400 IS, monopod

Thanks to Lunareye ([link] ) for pointing out that it's a common bronzewing pigeon!

Very nice picture. I'm pretty sure it is a common bronzewing pigeon (Phaps chalcoptera).

Thanks Given that apparently it's found in almost all parts of Australia you'd think I should've know that, but I've honestly never seen one before!
