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.
