Spotted
The White-rumped Tanager is a distinctive species of open woodlands and savannas in South America, easily recognized by its prominent white rump, which is especially visible in flight.
Where to spot
Open woodlands, savannas, and cerrado habitats in central and eastern South America, including Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, and Argentina, generally below 1,000 meters.
How to spot
Look for its striking white rump when it flies, which is a key field mark. It often perches conspicuously on low branches, fence posts, or wires. Listen for its distinctive, somewhat chattering calls.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during daylight hours, especially in the morning when vocal.

This tanager is often seen foraging on the ground or in low shrubs for insects, occasionally making short, aerial sallies to catch flying prey in its open habitat.
