The Ash-breasted Tit-Tyrant is a small, active flycatcher, characterized by its grayish breast and often raised, pointed crest. It inhabits high-altitude montane scrub and woodlands.
Where to spot
Found in the high Andes of South America, from southern Colombia to Argentina, preferring puna grassland edges, montane scrub, and Polylepis woodlands.
How to spot
Look for its grayish breast, small size, and often spiky crest. It is a very active bird, moving quickly through vegetation. Listen for its sharp, sputtering calls, often given in rapid succession.
When to spot
Resident year-round in its high-altitude habitat. Active during daylight hours, often joining mixed-species flocks.

Like other tit-tyrants, it has a restless, active foraging style, constantly moving and gleaning insects from foliage and branches, often resembling a tit (Paridae).
