Spotted
The White-eyed Antwren is a small, rather nondescript antwren that can be identified by its pale eyes and its habit of foraging in the lower to mid-story of humid forests. Its soft, repetitive calls are often heard before it is seen.
Where to spot
Southeastern Amazonian Brazil, particularly in the states of Pará and Mato Grosso.
How to spot
Look for it gleaning insects from foliage and bark in the understory and mid-story of humid primary and secondary forests. Pay attention to its characteristic pale eye, which stands out against its darker plumage.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best sought during the morning hours when it is most active.

The pale iris is a subtle but distinctive field mark for this species, differentiating it from many other similarly sized antwrens in its range, especially in the dim forest light.
