Spotted
The Bar-bellied Woodcreeper is a large, striking woodcreeper named for the prominent barring on its belly. It is a powerful climber, foraging on tree trunks and large branches.
Where to spot
Inhabits the humid lowland forests of the Amazon basin, primarily in Brazil, Peru, and Bolivia.
How to spot
Look for its large size and conspicuous barring as it climbs tree trunks. Listen for its loud, often far-carrying, vocalizations, which are a good clue to its presence.
When to spot
Active year-round during daylight hours. Often observed foraging in the morning and early afternoon, sometimes with army ant swarms.

Its bold barring and large size make it quite distinctive among woodcreepers, though it can still be challenging to spot in the dense forest canopy.
