Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Medium-sized woodcreeper with a slender, curved bill. Combination of bill shape and unstreaked upperparts separate it from other woodcreepers. It is one of several species formerly known as Lineated Woodcreeper, all of which look very similar but have different voices and ranges. Duida Woodcreeper is known from eastern Ecuador, northeastern Peru, northwestern Brazil, eastern Venezuela, and near the southern and eastern borders of Colombia. Song is a series of whistles that decreases in pitch and accelerates near the end. Inhabits canopy of lowland and foothill rainforest, and often joins mixed-species flocks.
