Where to spot
Inhabits humid montane forests and cloud forests along the Andes, from Venezuela to Bolivia. Often found in dense undergrowth and bamboo thickets.
How to spot
Look for a small, active wren foraging in dense undergrowth or lower branches. Identify it by its rufous back. Listen for its lively, bubbling song.
When to spot
A year-round resident. Most active and vocal during the early morning and late afternoon, especially during the breeding season.
Its specific epithet 'rufulus' directly translates to 'reddish', referring to the characteristic rufous coloration of its upperparts.
