Spotted
The Green Cochoa is a stunning forest bird, characterized by its iridescent green and black plumage, with a vibrant blue patch on its head. It is native to the Himalayas and parts of Southeast Asia.
Where to spot
Dense, humid montane forests with abundant moss and epiphyte growth across the Himalayas and extending into parts of Indochina.
How to spot
Search in the canopy or mid-story of mossy forests. Its camouflage makes it hard to spot, so listening for its distinctive calls is crucial. They are often found near streams or damp areas.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active during the breeding season. Best chances are often early morning or late evening.
