replies: text: Okay,  how does this grab you as a hook ...that the pink-necked green pigeon was one of the first species of bird recorded on Krakatoa after it exploded in 1883? Or something like that. Sabine's Sunbird  talk 05:54, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

text:  can you link the source that supports that at Template:Did you know nominations/Pink-necked green pigeon and also include it in the article? I have done the QPQ. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 06:05, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Threw the ref into the nom, the article is already linked, although it is reworded The pink-necked pigeon was observed on the first bird survey of the islands of Krakatoa after the main island was obliterated in a volcanic explosion in 1883, leaving a handful of smaller islands. The survey was conducted in 1908,[11]. Sabine's Sunbird  talk 06:13, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

message: It is FALSE that these birds do not breed in February. Right now a pair of these birds have built a nest outside my bedroom on my balcony in my fake hanging plant. They started building the nest on 15 Feb for a few hours each day. The female laid her eggs on 19 Feb. 
Also, not fully correct that they do roughly 12 hour shifts each with the male in the day and female at night. From 19 Feb to 24 Feb, they were doing approximately 24 hour shifts. The male was even recorded once doing a full 28 hour shift before the female arrived to take over. After the initial 5-6 days, they started doing 12 hour shifts. 
They are gentle birds. I clean their poop everyday and feed them little twigs which they willingly take with their beaks. They then add it to the nest. They allow me to pet them gently and respond or answer to whistling. 116.88.133.214 (talk) 02:02, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
