Natterer's Hermit is a relatively small and somewhat distinctive hermit found in a disjunct distribution across parts of South America. It inhabits the understory of dry to humid forests and savannas.
Where to spot
Scattered populations in parts of Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay, typically in dry deciduous forests, gallery forests, and savanna-like cerrado habitats.
How to spot
Look for its unique plumage features compared to other hermits, which can include subtle markings that aid in identification. It often perches low and forages methodically on its trap-lines.
When to spot
Active year-round, with increased foraging activity during the cooler parts of the day, such as early mornings and late afternoons.
