The Fulvous-crested Tanager is a striking species with a prominent fulvous (tawny-orange) crest on the male. It is a common inhabitant of the forest understory.
Where to spot
Found in the understory and lower to mid-story of humid lowland and foothill forests in parts of South America.
How to spot
Patiently scan the shaded undergrowth. Its crest is a clear identifier, and it often joins mixed-species flocks, making it easier to find.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Early mornings are best for spotting this bird as it forages actively.

The male's crest can be raised or lowered, a behavior used in displays to signal to rivals or attract mates.
