lahore pigeons are some of the most visually appealing birds out there. like in terms of visual design. very minimalist, good contrast.

Too bad Lahore pigeons are a domestic breed and don’t appear in the wild at all.
Some equally balanced wild colorations include

Pygmy Falcon

Great Hornbill

Wallcreeper

and

Black-throated Loon

this is a good addition to this post. thank you for this birds educations

I would like to submit the following additions to the world of exceptional bird color design:

Cedar Waxwing

Red Crowned Crane

Brahminy Kite

Green Tree Swallow (I mean seriously – those are metallic teal feathers against stark white. Damn.) 

Bali Mynah

And, last but certainly not least, the cutest fucking puffball on this planet earth:

The Korean Crow-Tit

I’d also like to contribute some pretty awesome birds

Hooded Pitta (or as like to call them little olives)

Coua

Mot-Mot

The Blue Crown Pigeon (the biggest pigeon)

All pigeons are domestic or feral lol

Excuse? Not sure if that’s a sardonic or ironic comment but…

Rock doves, the ancestor to todays feral/domestic breeds are very much wild. In the UK they’ve been pushed out to the edges of Ireland and West/North Scotland by the feral pigeon/interbreeding. They are excellent sooty and shiny birds.

Stock doves are a wild breed. A very neat little pigeon, dressed smartly with a pretty green blush.

The sorely missed passenger pigeons were wild (N.America)

Spinifex pigeons are wild (Australia) in all senses of the word.

Crested Pigeons, wild and holofoil (Australia, share your pigeons!)

Wood pigeons, collared doves and turtle doves are all wild pigeons.

Wood pigeons are big and afraid, the world is out to get them. A++ birds, very brave.

Collared doves are smol and shouldn’t be in the UK, it’s too gloomy here, but they do their best.

Turtle Doves, on the red list, be concerned about this beautiful bird ;; they only visit the UK, I have never been blessed with a sighting of this pretty pidj.

The pink necked green pigeon is wild (

Cambodia, Indonesia etc…) he fell in his makeup bag, but he owns it.

The Victoria Crowned pigeon is wild (native to New Guinea) and far too big for a pidj, needs to calm down, A++ hair style tho.

All of these here Green Pigeons are wild…

And many many others, there are so many excellent pigeons beyond our feral and domestic friends.

Yeah I forgot to clarify– I meant all pigeons descending from rock doves, which most if not all (? @ramseyringnecks ) bred pigeons come from, including the Lahore pigeons.
