Spotted
A strikingly beautiful tanager known for its vibrant plumage, often featuring shades of blue and black. This small, arboreal bird is a gem of the Neotropical forests, typically found foraging in the mid to upper canopy.
Where to spot
Humid montane forests of the Andes in South America, from Colombia south to Peru and Bolivia.
How to spot
Look for mixed-species flocks in the forest canopy. Listen for their high-pitched calls and watch for flashes of blue as they move through the foliage. Binoculars are essential for good views.
When to spot
Year-round, as they are non-migratory residents in their range. Best observed during the early morning hours when they are most active.

Its scientific name "cyanotis" literally means "blue ear," referring to the distinctive blue patch behind its eye that gives it its common name.
