Scale-throated Earthcreeper from Jujuy, Argentina (1 Viewer)

Oregonian

Well-known member
I would say Scale-throated Earthcreeper, but there does not seem to be white in the tail. The color does not seem buffy enough for Buff-breasted Earthcreeper or Plain-breasted Earthcreeper. The tail is too long for a Slender-billed Miner. The throat and upper breast does have some scaling or streaking, too.
This was northwest of Purmamarca, before highway 52 starts to climb in a big way.
