The Buff-fronted Foliage-gleaner is a robust Furnariid, often characterized by a noticeable pale supercilium or 'brow'. It actively forages for insects and spiders in dense foliage and mossy branches.
Where to spot
Found in humid montane and cloud forests in Central and South America, from Costa Rica south to Bolivia, typically at mid to high elevations.
How to spot
Search the mid-story and understory of montane forests, often in mixed-species flocks. Look for its active gleaning movements and listen for its distinctive, loud calls, which are often the first clue to its presence.
When to spot
Active year-round. Most vocal and visible during early mornings.

Despite its 'foliage-gleaner' common name, this species often forages on moss-covered branches and tree trunks, sometimes even acting like a woodcreeper.
