The White-chinned Woodcreeper is a dark, medium-sized woodcreeper characterized by a distinct white chin. It typically forages on tree trunks and branches in humid forests.
Where to spot
Inhabits the humid lowland and foothill forests of the Guianas and northeastern Amazonian Brazil.
How to spot
Look for it climbing tree trunks, probing bark with its bill. Its relatively uniform dark body with the contrasting white chin is the most reliable identifying feature.
