Spotted
The Rufous-vented Tyrannulet is a small flycatcher recognized by its distinctive rufous-colored vent area. It prefers the understory and edges of humid montane forests.
Where to spot
Native to the humid montane forests along the eastern slopes of the Andes in South America, from Venezuela to Peru.
How to spot
Look for the rufous wash on its undertail coverts (vent area), which contrasts with its otherwise duller plumage. It tends to stay low in dense vegetation, so patience and careful scanning are important. Listen for its thin, high-pitched calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Best observed during early mornings when they are more active and vocal.
