Cordilleran Canastero

Cordilleran Canastero - Asthenes modesta



Sightings:

Seen at a large salt pan lake in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile.

Notes:

Canasteros are a family that we don't have in Australia, although, interestingly, the Cordilleran Canastero is a little like our Redthroat in looks and habits!  This one spent most of its time moving quickly around small puddles and grass near the edge of the lake.
