The Mouse-brown Softtail is a rather plain, medium-sized Furnariid, characterized by its overall mouse-brown coloration and soft-textured tail. It inhabits humid forests.
Where to spot
Distributed in humid evergreen forests of southeastern Brazil, primarily in the Atlantic Forest biome, from coastal lowlands to foothills.
How to spot
Search for it in the understory and mid-story of humid forests. It can be difficult to spot due to its drab plumage, so listening for its vocalizations is often key.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, often within mixed-species foraging flocks. It is a resident species, observable year-round in its habitat.

Like other softtails, its tail feathers are notably softer and more flexible than those of typical birds, a feature that distinguishes this small group within the Furnariidae.
