Considered one of the most spectacular songsters in the Neotropics, the Musician Wren has a relatively plain appearance but an extraordinary, flute-like vocal repertoire.
Where to spot
Humid tropical and subtropical forests throughout the Amazon Basin and adjacent areas, including countries like Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia.
How to spot
Identify primarily by its unmistakable, clear, and varied flute-like song, which is often a defining sound of the Amazonian forest. It stays in dense undergrowth, so listen carefully.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Its magnificent song is most frequently heard at dawn and dusk, but it can vocalize throughout the day.
