Spotted
A rather dull-plumaged, thrush-like bird found in the humid lowland forests of the Amazon basin. It is characterized by its olive-brown plumage with a distinctly rufous tail.
Where to spot
Humid lowland rainforests, particularly in the understory and subcanopy, across the Amazon basin in Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia.
How to spot
Often detected by its distinctive, thrush-like songs, which are clear and whistled. Look for it foraging quietly in dense undergrowth. The rufous tail can be a useful field mark.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active and vocal in the early morning and late afternoon.

Despite its rather plain appearance, its vocalizations are distinctive and often the best way to locate this shy forest understory inhabitant.
