How to spot
Listen for its unique calls, which are often the best way to detect its presence in dense cover. Be patient and watch for subtle movements in the undergrowth. Field guides help with distinguishing its subtle plumage features.
When to spot
Resident throughout its range and observable year-round. It is most active and vocal during the early morning hours, when its calls can be heard through the forest.
