Plain-brown Woodcreeper

Dendrocincla fuliginosa

Least Concern

The Plain-brown Woodcreeper is a woodcreeper of humid forests in Panama, Brazil, and Colombia. 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.
