The Para Foliage-gleaner is a localized ovenbird with a predominantly brown plumage and a subtle pale throat. It is found in the diminishing forests of northeastern Brazil.
Where to spot
Lowland humid forests, specifically in the state of Pará, Brazil. It prefers the understory and lower to mid-canopy of primary and secondary growth forests.
How to spot
Its calls are often the best way to detect this elusive bird in dense vegetation. Look for slow, deliberate movements as it forages for insects on branches and in foliage.
When to spot
Year-round, with peak activity during early mornings and late afternoons. Its presence is less dependent on seasonality due to its resident nature.
