The Cinnamon Quail-thrush (*Cinclosoma cinnamomeum*) is a ground-dwelling bird endemic to the arid and semi-arid regions of central Australia. Adapted to some of the continent’s harshest environments, it is most commonly found among rocky plains, stony tablelands, and dry creek lines, where sparse vegetation helps it avoid predators.
