Spotted
The Rufous-rumped Antwren is a small, active passerine bird found in the understory of humid montane forests. Its striking rufous rump often provides a key identification clue amidst its otherwise subdued plumage.
Where to spot
Humid montane evergreen forests, typically in the mid-story and understory, across parts of the Andes in South America (Colombia, Ecuador, Peru).
How to spot
Look for mixed-species foraging flocks and listen for its high-pitched, often trilling calls. Scan the understory and mid-story foliage carefully, as they are small and can be hard to spot in dense vegetation.
When to spot
Resident year-round in its native range. Active during daylight hours, especially in the early morning.

Like many antwrens, it often joins mixed-species foraging flocks, moving rapidly through the foliage in search of insects, making it part of a diverse avian community.
