Why it matters
The Large-footed Tapaculo is a secretive Andean species, notable for its distinctive rounded wings and notched tail which are well-adapted for life in the dense, high-altitude undergrowth. Birders and researchers prize this elusive passerine for its rarity and the challenge of documenting a bird that rarely leaves the cover of its forest floor habitat.
