Slate-colored Solitaire

Myadestes unicolor

The slate-colored solitaire (Myadestes unicolor) is a modestly plumaged species of bird belonging to the family Turdidae. It presents a uniform slate-grey coloration that cloaks its body, providing it with a subtle elegance that is characteristic of its kind.

Identification Tips

When endeavoring to identify the slate-colored solitaire, one should note its uniform slate-grey plumage, which is devoid of any striking patterns or colors that might otherwise draw the eye. This bird's unassuming appearance is its signature trait, making it a challenge to spot amongst the dense foliage of its natural habitat.

Habitat

The slate-colored solitaire favors the seclusion of subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. These lush, verdant environments provide the perfect backdrop for this bird's understated beauty.

Distribution

This species has carved out a home for itself across a range of Central American countries, including Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Nicaragua. It is within these nations that the slate-colored solitaire can be observed, flitting silently through the forest mists.

Conservation status

The slate-colored solitaire is currently classified as Least Concern by the IUCN. This status indicates that, for now, the species does not face any immediate threats to its survival. However, one must remain vigilant, as the stability of any species is subject to the ever-changing dynamics of our natural world.

Great app for bird lovers
I love this app! It’s a wonderful way to track birding sessions, and also connect you with fellow birders. I also really like the unidentified bird section, it’s a great community tool to help figure out what a never-before-seen bird is!

Makes you want to spot birds more
I think this app is fun. It makes you want to spot birds more so I guess in a way it encourages you to get out and about instead of sitting in front of the TV.

A Friendly Place
I love using the bird app, I have a pretty good knowledge of birds. But I do have some gaps in it, so it’s nice to have a safe space to check on a sighting to confirm the species. It’s really enjoyable and I love the badges you can collect. It’s like a real life Pokémon go.
