The stripe-throated wren (Cantorchilus leucopogon) is a species of bird in the family Troglodytidae. It is found in Colombia, Ecuador, and Panama. The stripe-throated wren has at times been treated as conspecific with the stripe-breasted wren (Cantorchilus thoracicus) and the two form a superspecies.
The stripe-throated wren is 12 cm (4.7 in) long. Adults of the nominate subspecies have a dark brown crown and upperparts; the latter are more rufescent on the rump. Their tail is reddish brown with narrow blackish bars. They have a grayish white supercilium. The rest of the face, chin, and throat have black and grayish white streaks that end abruptly at the deep reddish buff upper chest. That color continues and becomes darker and richer through the belly to the vent. Juveniles are similar to the adults but the facial and throat streaking is less well defined. C. l. grisescens is paler and grayer overall.
The stripe-throated wren of subspecies C. l. grisescens is the more easterly of the two. It is found on the Caribbean slope... Wikipedia →

Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Stripe-throated Wren sighting in Darién National Park on a given day, based on 155 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 19th most-seen of the 397 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
September and November
In those months about 50% of wildlife watchers report a Stripe-throated Wren in Darién National Park on a given day, against about 10% in May, July and October, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Stripe-throated Wren sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Darién National Park, in our data
Darién National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Stripe-throated Wren sightings: about 30% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Stripe-throated Wren is recorded against all the birds logged in Darién National Park (155 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
