Spotted
The Black-faced Ant-Tanager is a distinctive species with a prominent black face and throat contrasting with its rufous-brown body. It's a localized resident of the humid forests of Costa Rica.
Where to spot
Endemic to the Pacific slope of southwestern Costa Rica, inhabiting humid lowland and foothill forests.
How to spot
Look in the dense understory of humid forests, particularly near streams or damp areas. They can be elusive, so quiet observation and listening for their calls are crucial. Local guides are often helpful.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round within its restricted range. Early mornings are best for activity.
This ant-tanager often forages relatively low to the ground in dense undergrowth, making it a challenging but rewarding species to observe.
