Hooded Antpitta

"Grallaricula are very small Andean antpittas, found mostly in low dense vegetation (such as treefall gaps, stream edges, and bamboo thickets)." The hooded antpitta is about 10 to 12 cm (3.9 to 4.7 in) long. The sexes have the same plumage. Adults of the nominate subspecies have a bright orange rufous hood on their entire head, neck, and throat. Their upperparts and tail are olive brown and their wings are a similar but less olive hue. Their upper breast and flanks are pale gray with a thin and indistinct white crescent separating them from the throat. Voice: The hooded antpitta's song has been described as "8-10 high notes, rising then falling". Another vocalization was reported as "a di- or trisyllabic, high-pitched but quite liquid call, repeated 2-3 times".
