Spotted
A small, secretive gamebird found in Southeast Asian forests, characterized by its cryptic plumage and distinctive green legs. It is primarily ground-dwelling.
Where to spot
Found in evergreen and deciduous forests, often in hilly or montane regions, across parts of Southeast Asia (e.g., Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia).
How to spot
Extremely shy and difficult to flush. Listen for its soft, whistled calls, which can help pinpoint its location. Observe quietly from a distance, focusing on the forest undergrowth.
When to spot
Most active at dawn and dusk, when it forages on the forest floor. It is generally quiet during the middle of the day.

Despite its name, the 'green' leg color can vary from yellowish-green to olive-green depending on the subspecies and individual, and is a key identification feature.
