Photo of a point-tailed palmcreeper made by Peter Relson in Suriname in 2002, near Zanderij airport. As its name in many languages says, the bird is always found near or in Moriche palms (Ite, as in this picture), where it searches for small insects and spiders. It can even look for them hanging up side down as it almost does here on this picture. Otte Ottema recorded the sound of the point-tailed palmcreeper also near Zanderij (Pengel) airport in Suriname in november 2004.
Each small square indicates the observation of at least one (group) of these birds, the medium ones at least 4 observations on different days and the largest ones 10 or more. The color of each square indicates: blue for coastal area, yellow for savanna and red for rainforest.
