Spotted
The White-bearded Antshrike is a distinctive and charismatic antshrike, named for the prominent white throat and 'beard' of the male. It is a shy but beautiful resident of southeastern Brazilian forests.
Where to spot
Dense undergrowth, especially bamboo thickets and vine tangles, within humid lowland and foothill Atlantic Forest, endemic to southeastern Brazil.
How to spot
Listen for its loud, ringing 'chew-chew-chew' call. Patiently scan the dense undergrowth for movement. It can be challenging to spot due to its secretive nature and cryptic habitat.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active and vocal during the early morning and late afternoon, particularly during the breeding season.
