Where to spot
Humid lowland forests, particularly near rivers and forest edges, in the western Amazon basin of Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil.
How to spot
Scan the canopy and forest edges for small, active flocks. Listen for their distinctive chatter, which often reveals their presence before they are seen.
When to spot
Year-round. Most active in the early morning and late afternoon when they feed.
