The Mountain Wren is a widespread and common wren species found in the montane regions of South America. It is a small, active bird, often distinguished by its darker plumage and loud song.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid montane forests, cloud forests, and elfin forest edges in the Andes, from Venezuela to Bolivia, and also in parts of Brazil.
How to spot
Look for a small, dark-brown wren in the understory or on low branches. Listen for its loud, clear, and often musical song, which is a good way to locate it in dense mountain terrain.
When to spot
A year-round resident. Most active and vocal during the early morning and late afternoon, especially during the breeding season.
