Spotted
The Pale-faced Bare-eye is a distinctive antbird, characterized by its pale, yellowish-white bare facial skin and rufous-brown plumage with subtle black spotting.
Where to spot
Endemic to a restricted area of humid lowland forests in the central Amazon basin of Brazil, particularly between the Madeira and Tapajós rivers.
How to spot
Requires visiting its specific, restricted habitat. Locate army ant swarms. The pale facial skin distinguishes it from other bare-eyes.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during early morning and late afternoon near army ant swarms.
This species is an obligate army-ant follower, relying on the ants to flush out prey, and is typically found in undisturbed primary forest.
