About the Tawny-winged Woodcreeper
The tawny-winged woodcreeper (Dendrocincla anabatina) is a passerine bird in subfamily Dendrocolaptinae of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Belize, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Panama.
The tawny-winged woodcreeper has three subspecies, the nominate D. a. anabatina (Sclater, PL, 1859), D. a. typhla (Oberholser, 1904), and D. a. saturata (Carriker, 1910). Some authors have merged saturata with the nominate but this treatment has not been widely accepted.
The tawny-winged woodcreeper is 17 to 19 cm (6.7 to 7.5 in) long. Males of the nominate subspecies weigh 34 to 42 g (1.2 to 1.5 oz) and females 29 to 39 g (1.0 to 1.4 oz). The species is a medium-sized member of its genus, with a straight bill, a short tail, and a ruffled nape. The sexes have the same plumage. Adults of the nominate subspecies have a brown head with buffy supercilium and bare gray skin around the eye.
