Where to spot
Found in specific mature lowland rainforests on Borneo and Sumatra. It is a rare and localized species.
How to spot
Observing this bird is a challenge due to its rarity and dense habitat. Look in the mid-canopy of primary lowland forests, listening carefully for its calls.
When to spot
Year-round, but observations are infrequent due to its rarity and preference for undisturbed habitats.
Its unique facial wattles are thought to intensify in color during breeding season, serving as a visual signal for courtship displays.
