Chestnut-rumped Woodcreeper

Xiphorhynchus pardalotus

Least Concern

The Chestnut-rumped Woodcreeper is a woodcreeper of humid forests in Brazil, Suriname, and French Guiana. It hitches up tree trunks and along branches, propped on its stiff tail, probing bark and epiphytes for insects. Fun fact: Woodcreepers prop themselves on stiffened tail feathers to climb tree trunks, much as woodpeckers do.
