After a lot of work, our guide managed to lure this shy bird out of the undergrowth. The light on the shoulder feathers is not a light phenomenon but a characteristic white wing patch. This is the variant that lives in Borneo with a completely black head. The Western hooded pitta in the north has a brown cap. The distribution area is large and extends from the Himalayas, down to Southeast Asia. The bird feeds on insects and their larvae, but also eats berries.
