Where to spot
Humid montane forests, cloud forests, and dense secondary growth in the Andes of northern Peru and southern Ecuador.
How to spot
Look for its distinctive chestnut back. Listen for its rapid, chattering calls. It stays hidden in dense thickets, so patience and quiet observation are essential.
When to spot
Year-round. Most active in the early morning and late afternoon. Vocalizations are important for detection.
