Spotted
The Rufous-backed Tody-Tyrant is a charmingly small flycatcher with a striking rufous or reddish-brown back. It favors the lower and mid-levels of humid tropical and subtropical forests.
Where to spot
Primarily found in South America, particularly in the humid forests of the western Amazon basin and along the eastern slopes of the Andes.
How to spot
Look for its distinctive rufous back and listen for its high-pitched, often repeated calls. It often perches quietly, flicking its tail, before darting out for insects. Scan dense forest edges and clearings.
When to spot
Resident throughout the year. The best times for observation are often during the morning hours when birds are more active and vocal.

Despite its vibrant back, its overall small size and tendency to stay within dense foliage can make it surprisingly difficult to spot without keen observation skills.
