These highly vocal and social birds move in noisy groups through the undergrowth of montane forests. It is native to Southeast Asia.

How to spot
Listen for their loud, varied, and often 'laughing' calls. Look for groups moving actively through the undergrowth and lower canopy. The prominent blue wings and tail are unmistakable identification features.
When to spot
Resident throughout its range and observable year-round. Early morning and late afternoon are the most active periods for foraging and vocalizations.
