Spotted
A widespread and common tityra species found across Central and South America. Males are pale grey or white with a prominent black facial mask, black wings, and a black-tipped tail.
Where to spot
Humid lowland and montane forests, forest edges, and semi-open areas from southeastern Mexico south to northern Argentina.
How to spot
Look for it perched on exposed branches in the canopy or mid-story. The black facial mask is a clear identifier. Listen for its loud, often repeated, raspy 'wrack!' calls.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Active throughout the day, often more vocal in the early morning and late afternoon.
This species is often seen perched conspicuously at the top of tall trees, making it easier to spot despite its generally plain coloration.
