Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Chunky species with a large dark eye framed by a pale eyering and large bill. Rather gray-brown overall with a grayer head, a buffy breast, and a whitish belly. Various subspecies occur, which vary in the color of the area around the bill from white to buff. Uncommon, sits motionless in the lower and middle levels of lowland and riparian forests, second growth, and forest edges where it is usually hard to spot.
