Spotted
The Robin Accentor is a small, shy passerine bird found in the high mountains of Central and East Asia. It exhibits a distinctive rusty-red breast, reminiscent of a robin, hence its common name.
Where to spot
High-altitude scrub, rocky slopes, and alpine meadows in the Himalayas, Tibetan Plateau, and mountains of southwest China.
How to spot
Often solitary or in pairs, it forages on the ground among rocks and low vegetation. Patience is key, as they can be skulking. Look for its diagnostic reddish breast.
When to spot
Best observed during the breeding season in summer at higher elevations. In winter, it may descend to lower valleys, making it more accessible.

Despite its 'robin' appearance, it is not a thrush but part of the accentor family, characterized by their often drab plumage and ground-dwelling habits.
