Duetting pairs produce loud, resonant 'co-PO-co' calls from forest floor; far-carrying and owl-like in quality. Dawn chorus pairs call in rapid antiphonal sequence.

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.

Marbled Wood-quail

A medium-sized New World quail (~320 g) of family Odontophoridae, with intricately marbled brown plumage and a small crest. Inhabits humid lowland and foothill forests across northern and central South America from Colombia to Brazil. Forages on the forest floor in pairs or small groups for seeds and invertebrates. Least Concern; widespread in Amazonian and Guianan forests.
