Spotted
The Southern Bristle Tyrant is a small, active flycatcher found in humid montane forests. It is characterized by its dull olive plumage and often subtle crest.
Where to spot
Humid montane forests in the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Look in the understory and mid-story.
How to spot
Look for its small size, olive coloration, and observe its active foraging style, often sallying out to catch insects. Listen for its high-pitched, insect-like calls.
When to spot
Year-round, often most active in the early morning.
Like other bristle-tyrants, this species has small, stiff bristles around its bill, which may aid in detecting insects during foraging flights.
