Spotted
The White-bellied Dacnis is a small, striking honeycreeper-like tanager. Males are largely black with an iridescent turquoise crown and rump, and a clean white belly. Females are duller.
Where to spot
Humid lowland forests of western Amazonia, including parts of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Brazil.
How to spot
Look for it in the mid-to-upper canopy, often in mixed-species flocks. Males are easily identified by their black and turquoise plumage with a white belly; females are less conspicuous.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active during early morning and late afternoon.

Like other dacnises, it has a slender, pointed bill perfectly adapted for probing flowers for nectar and picking small insects from foliage.
