Spotted
The Olive-backed Tanager is a rather unique and localized tanager from northeastern South America, distinguished by its olive-green plumage, blackish face, and a contrasting pale bill.
Where to spot
Found in humid foothill and lower montane forests of northeastern Venezuela and adjacent parts of Guyana.
How to spot
Look in the mid-story of humid forests, often near forest edges or clearings. They can be inconspicuous, so listening for their calls and carefully scanning the foliage is important.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round within its range. Early mornings are best for activity.
