About These Birds
Chestnut-headed Partridge
A medium-sized partridge (~285 g) of family Phasianidae, with a distinctive chestnut head and nape. Inhabits foothill and montane forests in the Cardamom Mountains of Cambodia and adjacent Thailand. Forages on the forest floor for seeds, berries, and invertebrates. Least Concern; found in relatively intact montane forest within a restricted range; protected by rugged terrain.
Indian Peafowl
The Indian peafowl is the national bird of India and one of the most spectacular birds in the world.

Despite their size, peafowl can fly short distances and roost in tall trees.
