The Puna Earthcreeper is a robust Furnariid that thrives in the high-altitude puna grasslands of the Andes. It is typically found foraging on the ground, often among rocks and sparse vegetation.
Where to spot
Inhabits the puna zone of the Andes in Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina, at very high elevations in open, rocky grasslands.
How to spot
Scan the ground and rocky areas in puna habitats. Look for its relatively upright posture and ground-foraging habits. Its calls are often distinct and can help locate it.
When to spot
Observable year-round. Most active during daylight hours, especially in sunny periods.

Puna Earthcreepers often nest in crevices or burrows in rocky outcrops, providing protection from the harsh winds and cold temperatures of their high-altitude habitat.
