Where to spot
Widespread across arid and semi-arid scrub, agricultural areas, and urban parks in Chile and western Argentina, extending into Bolivia and Peru.
How to spot
Look for it foraging on the ground or perched conspicuously on wires or low bushes. Its elegant gray and white plumage with the wing patch is unmistakable.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Active throughout the day, often quite tame in urban areas.

The white patch on its wing is very striking in flight, appearing as a bright flash, which is a key identifying feature.
