About These Birds
Amazonian Barred Woodcreeper
The Amazonian Barred Woodcreeper is a substantial furnariid weighing 66 g with a 25.4 cm wingspan, climbing tree trunks in search of insects across Amazonian forests. Its barred brown plumage provides camouflage against bark as it probes crevices with its curved bill.
Araguaia Spinetail
The Araguaia Spinetail is a small furnariid from the Araguaia river region of central Brazil, weighing about 18 grams with a wingspan near 12 cm. It inhabits dense riparian scrub and seasonally flooded vegetation along waterways. Like other spinetails, it creeps through tangled stems probing for insects and builds a globular nest with a side entrance.
