The Spot-breasted Laughingthrush is a medium-sized songbird known for its rich, varied vocalizations and distinctive spotted breast plumage. It is typically a shy, skulking bird, preferring dense undergrowth in forested habitats. This species is found across parts of Southeast Asia.
Where to spot
Distributed across Southeast Asia, including parts of northeastern India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and southern China. It prefers dense broadleaf forests, bamboo thickets, and scrub at varying altitudes.
How to spot
Listen carefully for its distinctive, often rich and varied song, which can be a key to locating it in dense cover. Watch for movements in the undergrowth or low branches, and be patient as they can be secretive.
When to spot
Present year-round in its resident range. The best time to observe or hear them is during the early morning or late afternoon when they are most active and vocal.
