The Roraiman Spinetail is a relatively large and distinctive Furnariid, characterized by its rufous-brown plumage and strong bill. It is endemic to the unique tepui environments.
Where to spot
Endemic to the tepui mountains of the Guiana Shield, specifically found in highland forests and shrublands on the slopes and summits of tepuis in Venezuela, Guyana, and Brazil.
How to spot
To observe, you must visit the challenging tepui habitats. Look for it foraging methodically in the dense, often stunted, vegetation on the tepui slopes and summits.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours, particularly in the morning. It is a resident species, observable year-round within its limited range.
