Spotted
The Slender-footed Tyrannulet is a small and often inconspicuous flycatcher of the Amazon basin. It is characterized by its dull olive-green plumage and yellowish wash on the belly.
Where to spot
Widespread in the Amazon basin across parts of Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia. It inhabits humid lowland evergreen forests, especially in the understory and mid-story.
How to spot
Scan the understory and mid-story of humid Amazonian forests. Look for its small size and plain plumage. Its soft, high-pitched calls are often the best clue to its presence, especially when it's part of a moving flock.
When to spot
A permanent resident in its range. Most active during the morning hours, often joining mixed-species flocks.
