Spotted
A large and spectacular cotinga species found in the humid rainforests of northern South America. The male is almost entirely deep crimson, giving it a truly military-like appearance.
Where to spot
Humid lowland rainforests, particularly near forest edges and clearings, in northeastern Venezuela, the Guianas, and northern Brazil.
How to spot
Look in the canopy and upper mid-story of tall forests. The male's vibrant crimson plumage is unmistakable. Listen for its loud, guttural calls, which can be far-carrying.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during early morning and late afternoon when foraging for fruits.
