It is found throughout Japan, except on Hokkaido; it winters to Southeast Asia.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 25 recordings for this species: 1 CC BY-NC-SA. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
