The Thrush-like Wren is a large and distinctive wren found in the Amazon basin, named for its somewhat thrush-like appearance and behavior, particularly its stout bill and foraging style.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid lowland rainforests, particularly in the understory and on the forest floor, across a wide area of the Amazon basin in South America.
How to spot
Look for a large, relatively robust wren foraging on the forest floor, often in dense undergrowth. Listen for its loud, rich, and varied song, which is quite thrush-like in quality.
When to spot
A year-round resident. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon.

Unlike many wrens, this species often forages on the ground, hopping among leaf litter in a manner reminiscent of thrushes.
