Spotted
The Gray's Piping-Guan is a medium-sized cracid characterized by its dark plumage and a pale or grayish wattle or facial skin. It is often considered a subspecies of the Blue-throated Piping-Guan or a distinct species.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid lowland and foothill forests of southwestern Amazonia, primarily in Bolivia, and extending into adjacent parts of Peru and Brazil.
How to spot
Scan the forest canopy, particularly near fruiting trees. Their large size and dark coloration can make them difficult to spot against the foliage, so listening for their calls is often the best first step.
When to spot
Most active during the early morning and late afternoon hours as they forage for fruits and seeds in the tree canopy.
