Plain-throated Antwren

Myrmotherula ambigua

The Plain-throated Antwren is a small, insectivorous bird found in the tropical forests of South America. It is characterized by its olive-green upperparts, gray underparts, and a plain throat. This species is known for its distinctive vocalizations, often heard in the dense understory of the forest. It forages for insects and small invertebrates by gleaning from leaves and branches. The Plain-throated Antwren typically forms monogamous pairs and builds cup-shaped nests in the vegetation. Although not currently considered threatened, habitat loss and fragmentation pose potential risks to its populations.
