The Red-backed Thrush is a vibrantly colored thrush endemic to Sulawesi and nearby islands. It features a rich rufous-red back and head, contrasting with a black face and spotted white underparts.
Where to spot
Humid lowland and montane rainforests of Sulawesi, Togian, and Peleng islands in Indonesia.
How to spot
Look on the forest floor or low branches. Its bright rufous-red back is an unmistakable field mark. Listen for its varied calls.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Active throughout the day, often more visible than many other ground-thrushes.
This thrush's brilliant red-backed plumage makes it one of the most eye-catching ground-thrushes in its range.
