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.
Rufous-fronted Wood-quail
A medium-sized New World quail (~280 g) of family Odontophoridae, with a rufous forehead and brownish plumage. Inhabits humid lowland and foothill forests on both Pacific and Caribbean slopes of western Colombia and northwestern Ecuador. Forages on the forest floor for seeds and invertebrates. Least Concern; found in Chocó forests but not considered threatened despite regional deforestation.
