Scytalopus magellanicus

A tiny, secretive bird that few ever see but many hear. Its quick hops between mossy roots and fallen leaves reveal flashes of soft gray plumage and a hint of warm rufous beneath its tail. Though small, its bold, echoing song fills the forest with life. Spotting one is a rare delight for birdwatchers exploring Chile's temperate rainforests- proof that even the quietest corners of nature are full of surprises.
