The Collared Antshrike is a medium-sized antshrike known for the distinct white and black collar on the male. It is a resident of dry and semi-deciduous forests.
Where to spot
Dry and semi-deciduous forests, scrub, and dense thickets along the Pacific slope of southwestern Ecuador and northwestern Peru.
How to spot
Listen for its characteristic, accelerating 'whip-whip-whip' song. Scan the dense, thorny undergrowth. They are often seen in pairs and can be quite responsive to playback.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most vocal during the breeding season, which typically aligns with the local rainy season. Best seen in early morning and late afternoon.
