The Long-billed Woodcreeper is a distinctive woodcreeper named for its exceptionally long, slender, and slightly decurved bill. It uses this specialized bill to probe deep into crevices for insects.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid lowland and foothill forests across the Amazon basin, including Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, and Brazil.
How to spot
Look for its characteristic climbing motion on tree trunks and large branches. Its strikingly long, decurved bill is an unmistakable identification feature.
When to spot
Active year-round during daylight hours. Often observed foraging in the mid-story and canopy from morning to afternoon.

Its bill is among the longest relative to body size of any woodcreeper, an adaptation for reaching prey in deep bark crevices and bromeliads.
