Spotted
The Streak-breasted Woodpecker is a medium-sized green woodpecker, characterized by distinct streaking on its breast and belly. It is a shy resident of tropical forests, often found in the mid-canopy.
Where to spot
Found in Southeast Asia, including Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, inhabiting evergreen and mixed deciduous forests, particularly in hilly regions.
How to spot
Look for its overall green plumage with visible streaking on the underparts. Listen for its relatively soft, repetitive 'peep' calls and less aggressive drumming, often high in the canopy.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours, observed year-round. It can be elusive, so early mornings might increase chances of a sighting.

This species often forages by gleaning insects from bark and mosses, rather than relying solely on deep drilling, indicating a more varied feeding approach.
