Spotted
The White-browed Piculet is a tiny, active woodpecker distinguished by its olive-green upperparts and a prominent white supercilium. It moves swiftly and agilely through dense undergrowth and bamboo.
Where to spot
Inhabits broadleaf forests, bamboo groves, and secondary growth from the Himalayas east through parts of Southeast Asia, including Myanmar, Thailand, and China.
How to spot
Search for it moving rapidly and erratically among dense vegetation, often in bamboo or lower tree canopies. Its small size and quick movements make it challenging to spot, so listen for its high-pitched, almost insect-like calls.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, with peak activity during the cooler parts of the morning and late afternoon. It is a resident species, observable year-round.
This piculet often forages in mixed-species flocks, using its tiny bill to extract insects from crevices and under bark, demonstrating remarkable agility even on thin twigs.
