Sri Lanka whistling thrush  (Myophonus blighi)

Range

Confined to the central mountains of Sri Lanka (3).

Habitat

This secretive, ground-dwelling bird is restricted to dense, relatively undisturbed evergreen mountain forests above around 900 metres, although it is now found mainly between 1,200 and 2,100 metres (2) (3) (4). The bird is usually found close to rapid-flowing water and streams, particularly in ravines and gorges (3) (4).
