Spotted
A stunning and localized cotinga found in the cloud forests of the Andes. Males are particularly eye-catching with a bright golden-yellow breast patch contrasting with their dark green plumage.
Where to spot
Humid montane cloud forests on the Pacific slope of the Andes in southwestern Colombia and northwestern Ecuador.
How to spot
Scan the mid-to-upper canopy near fruiting trees. Its golden breast patch is a distinct field mark. Listen for its quiet, high-pitched whistle.
When to spot
Year-round resident, often most active during the cooler parts of the day, such as early morning.
