Chiapas Wren

Campylorhynchus chiapensis

The Chiapas Wren (Campylorhynchus chiapensis) is a medium-sized wren species found in the highlands of southern Mexico and northern Guatemala. It is known for its distinctive and melodious song, often heard in the dense undergrowth of cloud forests and pine-oak woodlands. This wren is typically observed foraging for insects and small invertebrates in the leaf litter and low vegetation. The Chiapas Wren is characterized by its brown plumage with intricate black and white markings, and it has a long, slightly curved bill adapted for its insectivorous diet. While its population size is not well-documented, it is generally considered to be of least concern in terms of conservation status.

Habitat: Cloud forests and pine-oak woodlands
