“The thing about sadness is that it never warns you that it will come back. You’ll end up with an aching heart again, minutes after laughing, and it will feel like you found someone in your house; someone who you thought had left.”

The Nicobar Pigeon is the closest living relative to the dodo. A large, mainly ground-dwelling bird, the Nicobar pigeon is the only member of its genus. Due to a lack of natural predators and isolation on small islands, this species has been able to develop bright plumage.
This species is classified as Near Threatened because throughout its wide range it is thought to be declining as a result of capture for food and the pet trade, habitat destruction and predation by introduced mammals. (Source & Source)
