Breeding
Introduction
The seasonality of breeding varies across the wide geographic range of Pale-vented Pigeon: at least May-July in Belize (Russell 1964); February-June in Costa Rica (Stiles and Skutch 1989); February-May in Trinidad (Belcher and Smooker 1936); March, May, June and November in Tobago (ffrench 1991); February, March, May, June, September, October, and November (= year round?) in Suriname (Haverschmidt 1968); and October in southern Brazil (Belton 1984).
Their nests are small and fragile, consisting of a flimsy platform of slender twigs built several meters from the ground in tangles of vines or small trees (Belcher and Smooker 1936, Skutch 1964, Haverschmidt 1968, Wetmore 1968); less frequently, nests may be as high as 15 m above the ground (Russell 1964), Eggs are subelliptical; the dimensions of one egg were 37.4 x 22.1 mm (Wetmore 1968). Only one egg is laid per clutch; the egg is white and unmarked (Belcher and Smooker 1936, Skutch 1964, Haverschmidt 1968, Wetmore 1968).
