Where to spot

How to spot
Scan the mid to upper canopy of montane forests for flashes of bright crimson and black. Their melodious, fluty calls are often the first sign of their presence; learning these calls is key.
When to spot
Active throughout the year in its native habitats, though breeding season might offer more opportunities to hear their calls.

Like many orioles, this species is primarily arboreal, spending most of its life foraging for insects and fruits high in the forest canopy, rarely descending to the undergrowth.
