See-see partridge

The see-see partridge (Ammoperdix griseogularis) is a gamebird in the pheasant family Phasianidae of the order Galliformes, gallinaceous birds.

This partridge has its main native range from southeast Turkey through Syria and Iraq east to Iran and Pakistan.

It is closely related and similar to its counterpart in Egypt and Arabia, the sand partridge, Ammoperdix heyi.

See-see partridge is a rotund bird, mainly sandy-brown with wavy white and brown flank stripes.

The female is a very washed-out version of the male, and is more difficult to distinguish from its relative due to the weak head pattern.
