About
The Beautiful Treerunner is a near-threatened, bark-creeping bird restricted to humid cloud forests of Panama and Colombia. It has spotted and streaked rufous-brown plumage and clings to tree trunks and branches like a treecreeper. It forages for insects and spiders in mossy bark and epiphytes, and is threatened by forest fragmentation.
