The White-winged Trumpeter (Psophia leucoptera) is a distinctive, terrestrial bird of the Amazon rainforest. Easily recognized by its pure white secondary flight feathers contrasting with its dark body, it lives in social groups.
Where to spot
Found in the southwestern Amazon rainforest, primarily in parts of Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil. Inhabits dense lowland rainforest, often near rivers or clearings.
How to spot
Listen for their deep, resonant trumpeting calls. Look for groups of dark birds with conspicuous white wings walking on the forest floor. They can be shy, so quiet approach and patience are key.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active during the day, foraging on the forest floor in small groups.

Like other trumpeters, they are excellent at following larger animals, benefiting from insects and fruits uncovered by their movements. They are also known for their impressive, deep booming calls.
