The Russet-bellied Spinetail is a poorly known ovenbird with a rufous wash on its belly. It inhabits the dense undergrowth of humid montane forests.
Where to spot
Humid montane forests and dense cloud forest undergrowth in central Peru.
How to spot
Its extreme shyness means it's usually detected by voice only. Listen for its fast, chattering calls from deep inside dense vegetation. Patience and quiet waiting are essential.
When to spot
Year-round, though its secretive nature makes observations challenging at any time. Listen for calls in the early morning.

This species is known to be particularly secretive, often staying deep within the darkest parts of the forest understory, making it very difficult to observe.
