About These Birds
Black-chinned Antbird
The Black-chinned Antbird is a small antbird of Amazonian forests in Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, and Peru, typically found in flooded forests and forest edges near rivers and streams. Males are dark grey with a black chin and throat, while females have a white throat with black spots. It feeds on insects, often following army ant swarms, and frequently cocks its tail while foraging.
