Spotted
The Crimson-backed Tanager is a small, stunning tanager with males displaying an incredible crimson back, contrasting with a black head. It is endemic to the dry coastal regions.
Where to spot
Endemic to the arid coastal scrub and dry deciduous forests of southwestern Ecuador and northwestern Peru, generally below 500 meters.
How to spot
Look for the male's striking crimson back. It often forages in low, thorny scrub, where its vibrant color will stand out. Its small size and bright color make it a delightful find.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Males are more vibrant during the breeding season, making them particularly striking.
The male's intensely bright crimson back is truly spectacular and makes it unmistakable, a true gem for birdwatchers and a highly sought-after species.
