The White-throated Earthcreeper is a Furnariid easily identified by its prominent white throat contrasting with its brownish body. It is a terrestrial bird of the high Andes.
Where to spot
Found in the high Andes of Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina, typically in rocky areas, puna grasslands, and semi-arid scrub at high elevations.
How to spot
Look for it on the ground and among rocks in high-altitude environments. Its bright white throat is the most important identification feature. Listen for its trilling calls.
When to spot
Active year-round. Best observed during the warmer parts of the day when it's actively foraging.

The white throat patch serves as a clear visual cue, especially when the bird is vocalizing or displaying, making it easier to identify in its rugged habitat.
