Syndactyla dimidiata

Least Concern

The Russet-mantled Foliage-gleaner is a foliage-gleaner of humid forests in Brazil and Paraguay. It searches foliage, vine tangles, and dead-leaf clusters for insects, often joining mixed-species flocks. Fun fact: The family is named for the horneros, which build sturdy oven-shaped nests out of mud.
