Spotted
A small tapaculo with a restricted range in the high Andes of southern Bolivia and northern Argentina. It is a secretive inhabitant of humid montane forests.
Where to spot
Found in the humid montane forests and cloud forests of the Andes in southern Bolivia and northwestern Argentina. It prefers dense undergrowth.
How to spot
Listen for its distinct vocalizations, which are the primary key to detection. Observing it requires quiet persistence in its dense forest habitat, scanning for movement on the ground or in low vegetation.
When to spot
Most active and vocal during early morning and late afternoon. Can be observed year-round in its specific high-elevation habitat.
