Sclater's Doradito is a small, subtly colored flycatcher of marshy habitats, often difficult to observe due to its secretive nature and preference for dense vegetation. It is named after the British ornithologist Philip Sclater.
Where to spot
Found in fragmented populations in wetlands and marshes across parts of South America, including Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil.
How to spot
Look for its small size and preference for dense marsh vegetation. Listening for its distinctive, often buzzy or metallic calls is often the best way to locate it.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active during the breeding season when males are more vocal. Observation is challenging due to its habitat preference.
