Spotted
A small, charismatic robin-like bird with the male boasting a brilliant ruby-red throat patch. It inhabits dense alpine scrub and montane forests.
Where to spot
Alpine scrub, dwarf rhododendron, and dense bushes at high elevations in the Himalayas and adjacent mountain ranges of Asia.
How to spot
Listen for its melodious, often trilling song. It tends to stay low in dense vegetation, so patience and quiet observation are vital.
When to spot
Best observed during the breeding season in summer. Migratory to lower elevations or south in winter.
The male's vibrant throat is used in spectacular displays during courtship, contrasting sharply with its otherwise subtle brown plumage.
