Spotted
A distinctive species of bobwhite endemic to Central America, the male Black-throated Bobwhite is noted for its striking black throat and facial markings. These plump, ground-dwelling birds prefer dense vegetative cover.
Where to spot
Endemic to specific regions of Central America, typically found in lowland tropical dry forests, scrublands, and open woodlands with dense undergrowth.
How to spot
They are shy and secretive; listen for their calls to pinpoint their location. Look for subtle movements in dense thickets and be patient, as they tend to stay hidden.
When to spot
Active year-round. Best observed during the early morning or late afternoon when they are most active, foraging or calling.
