Distributed across northern South America, particularly in the Amazon basin, the Guianas, and parts of Venezuela and Colombia, in humid lowland forests.
How to spot
Look for its bright yellow underparts and broad bill. It often perches quietly, scanning for insects, before making quick, agile sallies. Listen for its distinctive, often buzzy or whistled calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active during the morning and late afternoon, when foraging for insects and vocalizing.
