Bridges' Guan is a large forest bird found in southern South America, often considered a subspecies of the Dusky-legged Guan but treated here as a distinct entity. It shares similar arboreal habits and dark plumage.
Where to spot
Found in humid forests, especially gallery forests, in southern Brazil, northeastern Argentina, and eastern Paraguay.
How to spot
Similar to other large guans, listen for its calls and scan the canopy. Distinguishing it from Dusky-legged Guan might require keen observation of subtle plumage differences or geographic location.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, with peaks in the early morning and late afternoon. It is a resident species, observable year-round.
The taxonomic status of Bridges' Guan has been a subject of scientific discussion, highlighting the complexities in classifying closely related populations.
