The common bronzewing (<em>Phaps chalcoptera</em>) is a medium-sized ground-dwelling pigeon with records from Norway, though it is primarily an Australian species with a range spanning various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic habitats. It is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, reflecting stable population numbers across its range.
