This is a tropical bird of south Asia but it has been introduced in various places in the United States including Florida and California and I have seen them in both those states. My picture below is from Florida. They may seem innocuous but they have been a major problem in that they eat the seeds of exotic plants and then spread them all over when they poop. They are a major reason why Brazilian Pepper and Loquats are popping up all over south Florida.
