The Rufous-winged Antwren is a tiny antwren, distinguished by its rufous wing panel and often found silently foraging in the understory of humid forests. It's a member of the diverse antbird family, often requiring keen observation to spot.
Where to spot
Humid lowland rainforests of the Guiana Shield and northern Amazon, including Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, and parts of Brazil.
How to spot
Search for it in the mid-to-lower strata of primary and secondary forests. It often perches quietly, so look for slight movements or listen for its soft, often indistinct vocalizations.
When to spot
Active throughout the year, especially during the breeding season. Early morning hours offer the best chances for observation.
