Spotted
The Olive-backed Hemispingus is a small, olive-green tanager-like bird with a subtle pale throat. It is a common resident of humid montane forests in South America.
Where to spot
Found in humid montane forests of the Andes, ranging from Colombia and Venezuela south through Ecuador and Peru.
How to spot
Look in the mid-story to canopy of humid montane forests, almost always in mixed-species flocks. They are small and blend in well, so observe flock movements carefully. Listen for their high-pitched, thin calls.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round in its range. Early to mid-morning is ideal for active observation with mixed flocks.
This species is often a core member of mixed-species foraging flocks, moving rapidly through the canopy and mid-story, gleaning insects from foliage.
