(delhibirdpix) Hill Partridge, Nainital, Uttrakhand


Species: Hill Partridge – Arborophila torqueola – Male

Date: 5th May, 2013

Location:  Distt. Nainital, Uttrakhand, India

Coordinates: N 29° 29.003' E 079° 22.242', (2286 meters)

Habitat: Rhododendron, Oak and fir forest.

Status: Least Concern

Remarks: The mournful, drawn out soft whistle like song was heard from the road, and the bird was found much closer than estimated perched atop a Rhododendron branch. Unmindful of our presence it kept singing for a while.
