Sri Lanka spurfowl
The Sri Lanka spurfowl is a member of the pheasant family which is endemic to the dense rainforests of Sri Lanka. In Sri Lanka, this bird is known as haban kukula - හබන් කුකුලා in Sinhala. It is a very secretive bird, and despite its size is difficult to see as it slips through dense undergrowth.
