Variegated Antpitta

Grallaria varia (Boddaert, 1783)

The Variegated Antpitta (Grallaria varia) is a species of bird in the Grallariidae family. It is found in Argentina, Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Suriname, and eastern border regions of Venezuela–two separate regions; also Peru. Variegated Antpitta is found in the Guianas and Venezuela to the west; in the Amazon Basin, it is found in the downstream half of the Basin, also the Atlantic outlet region to the southeast, of the neighboring Tocantins-Araguaia River drainage. A minor disjunct population is in Peru, and the Argentinian population is found in the tongue of land between Paraguay and southern Brazil. Source: Wikipedia
