Spotted
The Orange-bellied Euphonia is a small, colorful finch known for the male's glossy blue-black upperparts and bright orange underparts. Females are duller, olive-green with yellowish underparts.
Where to spot
Widespread in humid lowland and foothill forests of South America, including Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and northwestern Brazil. It prefers the forest canopy and edges.
How to spot
Look for this euphonia in fruiting trees and the canopy of humid forests and edges. The male's solid orange belly contrasting with its dark upperparts is key. Listen for its high-pitched, buzzy, and often simple calls.
When to spot
Resident throughout its range. Most active during the day, especially in the mornings, when it forages for fruits in the canopy.

The vibrant orange on the male's belly is a striking display of color, particularly when seen against the dark foliage of its forest habitat.
