Spotted
The White-vented Euphonia is a small, widespread finch characterized by the male's glossy purplish-black upperparts, yellow belly, and distinctive white vent. Females are duller, olive-green.
Where to spot
Widespread from southern Mexico and Central America south through South America to Peru and Brazil. It inhabits humid lowland forests, forest edges, and second growth.
How to spot
Look for this euphonia in fruiting trees and the mid-story to canopy of humid woodlands. The male's white vent patch contrasting with its yellow belly is a key identifier. Listen for its high-pitched, often buzzy or chattering calls.
When to spot
Resident throughout its range. Easily observable year-round, especially in the early morning or late afternoon when foraging for fruits.
