Spotted
The Sulawesi Ground Babbler is a distinctive, plain-plumaged babbler endemic to Sulawesi. It is a shy, ground-dwelling bird of dense forest undergrowth, often difficult to observe.
Where to spot
Endemic to the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia. It inhabits lowland and montane primary and secondary evergreen forests, preferring dense undergrowth and bamboo thickets.
How to spot
Listen for its distinctive, often explosive, 'pom-pom-pom-pom' calls, similar to a Puff-throated Babbler but with subtle differences. Look for a plain brown bird moving quietly on the forest floor.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon. Can be challenging to see due to its skulking nature.
