Spotted
The White-shouldered Tanager is a forest-dwelling species, with males sporting a black body and a distinctive white shoulder patch. Females are duller but also show this mark.
Where to spot
Common in humid lowland and foothill forests, clearings, and mature secondary growth throughout Central and South America.
How to spot
Look in the understory and mid-story of forests. The white shoulder patch is often the first thing that catches the eye, especially on males.
When to spot
Active throughout the year. Dawn and early morning are prime observation times when they are foraging or calling.
Despite its somewhat plain overall appearance, the white shoulder patch is surprisingly prominent, especially in flight or when the bird stretches.
