About These Birds
Bearded Wood-partridge
A medium-sized New World quail (~405 g) of family Odontophoridae, with a distinct facial streak resembling a beard. Endemic to cloud forest in a restricted area of the Sierra Madre Oriental of eastern Mexico. Forages on the ground for seeds and invertebrates. Vulnerable; critically restricted range in highly fragmented Mexican highland forests, with ongoing habitat loss from agricultural expansion.
Long-tailed Wood-partridge
A medium-sized New World quail (~385 g) of family Odontophoridae, with a long tail distinguishing it from related species. Endemic to Mexican highland forests, inhabiting cloud forest, pine-oak woodland, and humid mountain forest above 1,500 m. Feeds on seeds, plant material, and insects on the forest floor. Least Concern; restricted to Mexican mountains but common in suitable habitat.
