Goldman's Quail-Dove is a striking, ground-dwelling bird known for its iridescent plumage and secretive habits. This species is native to specific humid forest regions, where it forages quietly on the forest floor.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid broadleaf forests in eastern Panama and northwestern Colombia.
How to spot
Listen for its deep, mournful hooting call, which can betray its presence in dense undergrowth. As it's highly reclusive, observe silently from a distance near forest clearings or streams where it might come to drink. Look for its distinctive iridescent head if light allows.
When to spot
Best observed during the cooler parts of the day, typically dawn and dusk, when it's most active foraging.
