About These Birds
Red-billed Partridge
A small partridge (~225 g) of family Phasianidae, distinguished by its bright red bill on dark plumage. Endemic to montane forests of Sumatra at 700–2,000 m elevation. Inhabits the forest floor and dense undergrowth of subtropical highland forest. Forages for seeds, berries, and invertebrates. Least Concern; restricted to Sumatran mountains but currently stable with sufficient forest cover remaining.
Ferruginous Partridge
A small partridge (~210 g) of family Phasianidae, with rich ferruginous (rust-red) plumage and spotted black-and-white markings. Inhabits lowland and foothill rainforests in Malaysia, Sumatra, and Borneo. Secretive, foraging on the forest floor for seeds and invertebrates. Near Threatened; associated with primary and tall secondary forest, declining with ongoing logging and land conversion.
