The Rufous-breasted Antthrush is a striking ground-dwelling bird characterized by its deep rufous breast and blackish face. It is a shy inhabitant of humid montane and foothill forests.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid montane and foothill forests along the Andes, from northern Venezuela south through Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.
How to spot
Listen for its loud, clear, and often mournful whistling song. Patiently scan the forest floor and dense undergrowth, particularly near ravines or steep slopes, where it forages quietly.
When to spot
Active year-round, most vocal during the early morning and late afternoon, especially during the breeding season.

Its vibrant rufous breast is a key field mark that helps distinguish it from other antthrushes, even in the dimly lit forest understory.
