The Greater Gnatcatcher is a species within the diverse gnatcatcher family, known for its active foraging style. It's a small insectivore typical of humid forest environments.
Where to spot
Found in specific regions of humid lowland forests in northern South America, particularly in parts of Brazil and neighboring countries.
How to spot
Scan the mid-story and canopy for this small, constantly moving bird. Its thin, high-pitched calls are often the best way to locate it in dense foliage.
When to spot
Observed year-round within its habitat. Like other gnatcatchers, it is most active and vocal during the morning hours.
