Spotted
The Rusty-vented Spinetail is a small Furnariid distinguished by a warm rusty wash on its undertail coverts and vent. It prefers humid montane forests.
Where to spot
Found in humid montane forests and cloud forests along the Andes, from Venezuela south through Colombia and Ecuador.
How to spot
Look for it foraging in the understory and mid-story, often flicking its tail. Try to get a clear view of its undertail area to confirm the rusty wash.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours, often in mixed-species flocks. It is a resident species, observable year-round.

The 'rusty vent' is a key identification feature, though it may require a good view of the bird as it moves through dense foliage.
