The Long-billed Partridge is a distinctive forest bird known for its remarkably elongated bill. This adaptation helps it forage efficiently in the dense undergrowth of its montane habitat.
Where to spot
Native to montane rainforests, primarily found in the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra. It prefers areas with dense undergrowth and rich leaf litter.
How to spot
Very shy and difficult to spot. Focus on quiet, undisturbed montane forest areas. Listen intently for its calls or the sounds of it rustling in the leaf litter. Patience and stealth are crucial for a sighting.
When to spot
Year-round, with activity concentrated in the early morning and late afternoon when they are typically foraging on the forest floor. They can be elusive.

Its exceptionally long, slender bill is perfectly specialized for probing into soft soil, leaf litter, and moss to extract invertebrates and other food items.
