Why it matters
The Black-billed Capercaillie is a rare resident of the taiga forests in eastern Siberia and Mongolia, distinct for the subtle blue-black sheen of its plumage. Ornithologists and collectors prize this species for its elusive nature and its characteristic courtship display, where the male fans its tail feathers and exhibits a unique, repetitive vocalization.
