How to spot
Explore waterways in humid forest. Listen for its loud, musical song that carries well over the sound of water. Look for a medium-sized wren foraging in dense vegetation directly adjacent to water.
When to spot
A year-round resident. Most active and vocal during the early morning and late afternoon.
