Spotted
The Grey-striped Spurfowl is a distinctively marked spurfowl species endemic to the forest and woodland regions of Angola. It is characterized by its streaked plumage.
Where to spot
Found in subtropical or tropical dry forests, moist lowland forests, and savanna in western Angola. Often found near rocky outcrops or riverbeds.
How to spot
Listen for its loud, distinctive calls, which can help pinpoint its location. Scan the forest floor or clearings near dense cover. They are generally shy and will run into cover if disturbed.
When to spot
Most active at dawn and dusk. Its calls are more frequently heard during the breeding season.
This spurfowl's scientific name, 'griseostriatus,' literally means 'grey-striped,' referring to its characteristic plumage pattern of fine grey streaks.
