About These Birds

Bearded Bellbird

The Bearded Bellbird is a robust cotinga found in forests from Trinidad and Venezuela south to northeastern Brazil. Males are mostly white with a brown head and extraordinary wattle-like black feathers hanging from the throat, and produce an extraordinarily loud, hammer-like call audible over long distances. Females are olive-green and streaked, feeding primarily on fruit in forest canopy.
