    Despite its name, this was one of the lowland antbirds I saw the least often in Peru. But one day I finally lucked out and found a very cooperative pair right by the path! See the female:

      Few birds do black and white patterning better than antbirds, in my opinion :) Posted 4 years ago

      Thanks! Have you managed to see most of the antbirds on your islands? I was quite surprised to see that the Silvered Antbird, a bird I've never managed to see in Amazonia, occurs on Trinidad! Posted 4 years ago
