The White-eyed Foliage-gleaner is a distinctive ovenbird easily identified by its prominent pale eye-ring, contrasting with its otherwise dull brown plumage. It is an inhabitant of humid forests.
Where to spot
Humid evergreen forests, particularly in the Atlantic Forest biome of southeastern Brazil. It typically forages in the understory and mid-story.
How to spot
Look for its pale eye, which is a key identifying feature. Listen for its characteristic calls, often a series of high-pitched notes. Scan dense tangles and vine-covered trees.
When to spot
Year-round resident, active during daylight hours. Its vocalizations are most frequent during the breeding season, typically from spring through summer.

Its 'white-eye' characteristic, while striking, is actually a pale iris that stands out against its dark head, a useful field mark for identification.
