White-throated Cacholote

The white-throated cacholote is 22 to 23 cm (8.7 to 9.1 in) long and weighs 63 to 79 g (2.2 to 2.8 oz). It is one of the largest furnariids and has a small crest. The sexes have the same plumage. Adults of the nominate subspecies have a white eyering and lores on an otherwise dark brownish gray face. Their crown and upperparts are also dark brownish gray. Their wings are mostly the same dark brownish gray, with slightly paler edges on the coverts and flight feathers. Their tail is dark fuscous gray with slightly paler edges to the feathers; the feathers have few barbs on their ends. Voice: The white-throated cacholote's song is very loud; it reportedly carries nearly 2 km (1 mi). It is a "cacophonous explosion of variable, harsh, raucous notes" and is often sung in duet.
