How to spot
Look for its subtle pinkish-brown and blue coloration as it forages on the ground or sips water. Listen for its soft, melodious chirping calls, especially at sunrise and sunset.
When to spot
Crepuscular; most active at dawn and dusk when foraging for seeds on the ground. They are resident birds.
