The White-browed Spinetail is a small, unassuming ovenbird found in the undergrowth of montane forests. It is characterized by a subtle pale supercilium.
Where to spot
Humid montane forests, forest edges, and dense secondary growth in the Andes of central Peru.
How to spot
Listen for its rapid, chattering calls. It typically stays low in dense cover, so patience and careful scanning of the undergrowth are required.
When to spot
Year-round, with peak activity in the mornings and late afternoons. Vocalizations are often the primary clue to its presence.

This species often forages in pairs, moving stealthily through dense thickets, making it challenging to observe for extended periods.
