křepelka novoguinejská Synoicus monorthonyx

A huge quail of alpine grasslands. Plump, yellow bill and legs, black bars and white streaks on the back. Female has distinctive, black-edged, white arrow marks on the chest whereas the male has a black barred chest with deep rufous throat and underparts. No other quails share the habitat, and the only thing that might cause confusion when flushed would be a woodcock or snipe which have long bills. Flushes in a loud whir of wings while giving a high squealing call.
