White-browed Tit-Spinetail

Leptasthenura xenothorax

Near Threatened

The White-browed Tit-Spinetail is a tit-spinetail of scrub and undergrowth in Peru. A small, often rufous-toned bird, it skulks through dense undergrowth and tangles gleaning insects, its tail frequently held cocked. Classified as Near Threatened, it is threatened mainly by the loss and fragmentation of its habitat. Fun fact: Ovenbirds and woodcreepers form one of the most diverse bird families on Earth, with a remarkable variety of nests.
