Another pigeon pair

Yesterday morning a scrabbling noise on the roof had me wondering what was making the racket but anticipating a crow as it is quite common to have them clomping around.
However found a pair of White-headed pigeons Columba leucomela and one then flew to the powerline whilst the other stayed on the gutter.

Female

Male
 They range along the coastal regions from North Queensland to the Illawarra region south of Sydney. The habitat favoured is rainforest and open forest, feeding on fruits and seeds.
