Spotted
The Hainan Partridge is a critically endangered and highly localized partridge species, endemic to the island of Hainan, China. It is notable for its vibrant facial markings and deep red throat.
Where to spot
Found exclusively in dense broadleaf evergreen forests, especially in mountainous regions, on Hainan Island, China.
How to spot
Extremely shy and difficult to observe. The best method is to listen for its loud, resonant calls, which are a series of distinct whistles, often given in duets. Requires significant patience and dedicated effort in its specific habitat.
When to spot
Most vocal during the breeding season (spring) at dawn and dusk. Can be observed year-round, though visual encounters are rare.
This species is considered one of China's most threatened birds, facing severe pressure from habitat loss and degradation within its very restricted island range.
