Zeledón's Wren is a small, secretive wren of humid montane forests in Central America. It is typically found in dense undergrowth and is better known by its calls than by sight.
Where to spot
Inhabits humid montane forests, cloud forests, and bamboo thickets, particularly at high elevations, from Costa Rica to western Panama.
How to spot
Listen for its high-pitched, thin, and often sharp calls emanating from dense undergrowth. Patience is key for spotting it as it typically stays well hidden near the ground.
When to spot
A year-round resident. Most active and vocal during the early morning and late afternoon, especially during the breeding season.
