Humid montane forests and forest edges in the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, typically at mid to high elevations.
How to spot
Look for it on exposed perches at the edge of cloud forests or in clearings. Listen for its beautiful, complex, and often repetitive song, which is a key way to locate it.
