Spotted
The Unadorned Flycatcher is a small, rather drab flycatcher with olive-brown upperparts and yellowish underparts. It is found in humid montane forests of western South America.
Where to spot
Distributed along the Andes, from southern Colombia south through Ecuador and Peru, into Bolivia. It inhabits humid montane forests, often in the understory and mid-story.
How to spot
Scan the lower to mid-story of montane forests for this subtle bird. Look for its overall drab plumage. Its high-pitched, simple 'seep' or 'chip' calls are often the best clue to its presence, especially when it's hidden by dense foliage.
When to spot
A year-round resident in its highland habitats. Most active during the morning hours, sometimes joining mixed-species flocks.

Its name 'Unadorned' reflects its lack of bright colors or prominent markings, making it one of the more challenging flycatchers to identify without keen attention to subtle cues like bill shape and vocalizations.
