Spotted
The Peruvian Scythebill is a distinctive woodcreeper with a long, decurved bill. It is a specialized forager in humid montane and foothill forests.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid montane and foothill forests on the eastern slopes of the Andes, primarily in Peru and parts of Bolivia.
How to spot
Look for its characteristic climbing motion on tree trunks and large branches. Its long, decurved bill is the primary identification feature. Listen for its distinct calls.
When to spot
Active year-round during daylight hours. Often observed foraging in the mid-story and canopy from morning to afternoon.
Often treated as a subspecies of the Curve-billed Scythebill, its vocalizations and genetic data may indicate it's a distinct species, highlighting the complexities of Furnariid taxonomy.
