Spotted
A small to medium-sized tiger-heron with a distinctive finely barred plumage, found along clear, fast-flowing rivers and streams in mountainous regions of Central and South America.
Where to spot
Rocky, fast-flowing mountain rivers and streams, often with forested banks, in Central and South America.
How to spot
Look for its finely barred plumage and its preference for perching on rocks or logs in the middle of clear, fast-flowing water. Requires keen eyes and patience.
When to spot
Year-round. Most active during daylight hours, but very difficult to spot due to its cryptic plumage and habitat.

Unlike its relatives that prefer slow-moving or stagnant water, the Fasciated Tiger-Heron is adapted to swift currents, often perching on rocks mid-stream.
