Spotted
The Ferruginous-vented Conebill is a small, plain conebill with an olive-brown back and a pale belly, distinguished by a reddish-brown (ferruginous) patch on its undertail coverts. It inhabits high-altitude scrub.
Where to spot
High-altitude puna grassland and Polylepis woodland fragments of the Andes in Peru and Bolivia.
How to spot
Look for it foraging in low shrubs and trees. Its overall dullness and the subtle vent coloration require good views for identification.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active in the morning.

The reddish vent is often subtle but serves as a key distinguishing feature from other similar conebills in its high-altitude habitat.
