Where to spot
Restricted to the Atlantic Forest biome in southeastern Brazil, often found in humid montane and lowland forests.
How to spot
Look for its unmistakable white crest and dark body in the mid to upper canopy. It can be quite shy, so patience and quiet approach are beneficial.
When to spot
Most active during the cooler parts of the day, early morning and late afternoon. It is a resident species, present year-round.
