Spotted
The Russet-backed Tody-Tyrant is a small and inconspicuous flycatcher, notable for its russet-colored back. It typically inhabits the dense understory and bamboo thickets of humid montane forests.
Where to spot
Endemic to specific regions of the Andes in South America, favoring humid montane forests, especially those with bamboo.
How to spot
Look for its russet-colored back and small size. It tends to stay low in dense vegetation, so patience and careful scanning of the undergrowth, particularly near bamboo, are essential.
When to spot
Resident throughout its range, active all year. The best times to observe are usually during early morning when they are most vocal and active.

This species is often found as part of mixed-species foraging flocks, which can provide a brief window for observation as they move through the undergrowth.
