Spotted
The Chestnut-breasted Partridge is a distinctive and somewhat range-restricted partridge found in the eastern Himalayas and adjacent regions of Southeast Asia. It is characterized by its prominent chestnut breast and secretive habits.
Where to spot
Inhabits dense broadleaf evergreen forests and bamboo thickets in hilly and montane regions of the eastern Himalayas (India, Bhutan) and parts of Myanmar, China, and Vietnam.
How to spot
Extremely shy; best located by listening for its distinctive calls, often a series of repeated whistles. Walk quietly along forest trails and scan the undergrowth for any movement or foraging activity.
When to spot
Most vocal at dawn and dusk, particularly during the breeding season (spring). Can be found year-round.
Despite its striking appearance, it spends most of its time hidden in dense undergrowth, making it a highly prized sighting for dedicated birdwatchers.
