About
The Araucaria Tit-spinetail is a small furnariid closely associated with Araucaria pine forests in southern Brazil and Argentina, weighing about 11 grams with a wingspan near 11.5 cm. It creeps along branches and among pine needles searching for insects, often in the company of mixed-species flocks. Its dependence on Araucaria forest links its fate to the conservation of this threatened ecosystem.
