About These Birds
Ash-colored Tapaculo
The Ash-colored Tapaculo is a secretive passerine of the family Rhinocryptidae found in Andean cloud forests of Colombia and Ecuador. Weighing around 21.5g with a wingspan of about 11.4cm, it is uniformly grey in plumage. Like other tapaculos, it stays hidden in dense undergrowth and is more often heard than seen.
Blackish Tapaculo
The Blackish Tapaculo is a small, rotund bird with blackish-gray plumage, a short cocked tail, and near-vestigial wings. It inhabits dense humid forest undergrowth, bamboo, and cloud forest in the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru at elevations from 1,200 to 3,000 meters. It walks and hops through dense vegetation close to the ground, feeding on small insects and invertebrates, rarely flying.
