How to spot
A highly challenging bird to observe. Requires immense luck and dedicated conservation efforts to potentially see one in the wild. Focus on specific, protected wetland remnants known to have past sightings.
When to spot
Year-round resident, but extremely difficult to find due to its critically endangered status. Any sighting is rare.
