Spotted
A distinctive antpitta with a dark mask around its eyes and ear-coverts, found in humid lowland forests. It is a shy bird that forages on the forest floor.
Where to spot
Found in the humid lowland forests of southwestern Amazonian Brazil (Acre state) and adjacent parts of southeastern Peru and northern Bolivia.
How to spot
Listen for its characteristic calls, which are often the first sign of its presence. It is a very shy bird; observe patiently near where calls are heard, focusing on movement on the forest floor, often near dense thickets.
When to spot
Most active and vocal during early morning and late afternoon. Can be found year-round in its Amazonian forest habitat.
The prominent dark 'mask' is a key identifier for this species, contrasting with its generally paler throat and underparts.
