Yellow-breasted warbling antbird        Images © Mark A. Chappell

Of the many and varied antbirds (and antwrens, antshrikes, antthrushes, antpittas….) in South America, this one has one of the longest names.   To me it looks a lot like a wood warbler, but is not closely related to that family.   These were photographed at Pantiacolla Lodge in the Peruvian Amazon.
