Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Large plump antpitta with a short tail, long legs, and big eyes. Cryptically plumaged with a gray-speckled crown, brown spotted body, and a white moustache. Very secretive; walks quietly on the ground in humid forests. The song is deep and reverberates long distances through the forest, increasing in volume towards the end.
