The nominative species of the Schiffornis genus, a rather plain, olive-brown bird found in the humid lowland forests of the Amazon basin. It is best known for its clear, whistled, thrush-like song.
Where to spot
Humid lowland rainforests of the Amazon basin in Brazil, the Guianas, Venezuela, and Colombia.
How to spot
Often detected by its distinctive, melodious, whistled song. Look for it foraging quietly in the dense understory and mid-story. Its plain plumage can make it blend in well.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active and vocal in the early morning and late afternoon.
