Spotted
The Dusky-capped Woodcreeper is a Furnariid found in humid forests of western Amazonia, distinguished by its darker crown. It forages for insects by creeping upwards on tree bark.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid lowland forests of western Amazonia, ranging from eastern Ecuador and Peru to western Brazil and northern Bolivia.
How to spot
Look for its characteristic climbing motion on tree trunks, often as part of mixed-species foraging flocks. Identifying its dusky cap and listening for its specific calls are key.
When to spot
Active year-round. Observations are generally best during the cooler parts of the day, such as early mornings.
This species is part of a taxonomically challenging group of woodcreepers, where differences in vocalizations and subtle plumage traits are critical for distinguishing it from similar species.
