Spotted
The Rufous-collared Antbird is a distinctive medium-sized antbird, notable for its contrasting rufous collar (more prominent in males) and streaked plumage. It inhabits the dense undergrowth of humid montane forests.
Where to spot
Southeastern Brazil (Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná) and northeastern Argentina.
How to spot
Search in the dense understory and bamboo thickets of humid montane forests. Listen for its distinctive, often accelerating calls. Its rufous collar is a key visual clue if seen well.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during early morning activity.
This species, like others in its genus, often cocks its long tail when foraging, a behavioral trait that aids in its identification amidst dense vegetation and makes it quite agile.
