Spotted
The Silvered Antbird is a medium-sized antbird characterized by its greyish plumage and a subtly speckled or 'silvered' appearance, especially on its underparts. It is typically found near water.
Where to spot
Found in the understory of humid lowland forests, typically near slow-moving streams, oxbow lakes, and seasonally flooded areas across the Amazon basin and parts of the Guianas.
How to spot
Look for them along water edges, perched low on vegetation. Listen for their distinctive, often churring or bubbling calls. Their subtle silvered appearance can be hard to see in dim light.
When to spot
Observable year-round. Most active in the early morning and late afternoon.

This species often cocks its tail upwards and frequently bobs its body, a distinctive behavior that aids in identification.
