Spotted
The Rufous-naped Wren is a large and conspicuous wren widely distributed across Central America. It is characterized by its broad rufous collar on the nape and a loud, ringing song.
Where to spot
Found in open woodlands, forest edges, clearings, and agricultural areas, often near human habitation, from southern Mexico to Costa Rica.
How to spot
Listen for its loud, ringing, and often duet song, which is a common sound in its habitat. Look for a large, boldly patterned wren foraging in low trees, shrubs, or on the ground, often with its tail cocked.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active and vocal during the early morning and late afternoon, especially in the breeding season.
