Spotted
A strikingly bright robin, with males boasting a vibrant golden-yellow plumage. It is a shy bird of dense montane scrub.
Where to spot
Dense rhododendron scrub and bamboo thickets at high elevations in the Himalayas and adjacent mountain ranges of Asia.
How to spot
Listen for its pleasant, varied song. It tends to stay low in dense cover, so patience is needed. Look for flashes of yellow in dim light.
When to spot
Best observed during the breeding season (summer) when vocal activity is highest. Migrates to lower elevations in winter.

The male's brilliant yellow is almost fluorescent in certain light conditions, making it an unforgettable sight for those lucky enough to spot it.
