Spotted
The Barred Woodcreeper is a large, widespread woodcreeper notable for its prominent barring on the underparts and back. It forages by spiraling up tree trunks, searching for insects.
Where to spot
Widespread in humid lowland and foothill forests across a vast range in South America, including the Amazon basin, the Atlantic Forest, and parts of the Andes.
How to spot
Look for its large size and conspicuous barring as it climbs tree trunks. Listen for its loud, whistling calls, which are often the first clue to its presence.
When to spot
Active year-round during daylight hours. Often observed foraging from morning to afternoon, sometimes following army ant swarms.

It is a highly polymorphic species, with significant variation in plumage patterns across its vast geographical range, which has led to complex taxonomic studies.
