The Scaly-throated Foliage-gleaner is a small, active ovenbird named for the subtle scaling pattern on its throat and breast. It is a characteristic inhabitant of humid montane forests.

Where to spot

Humid montane forests and cloud forests in the Andes and Central American highlands. Found at mid to high elevations, usually in dense undergrowth.

How to spot

Listen for its high-pitched, often trilling calls. Observe it clambering along mossy branches and tree trunks, sometimes hanging upside down, as it actively searches for prey.

When to spot

Active year-round, primarily during early mornings and late afternoons. Breeding activities might make them more vocal and visible during the appropriate season.
