About These Birds
Black-headed Berryeater
The Black-headed Berryeater is a near-threatened, medium-sized cotinga with a glossy black head, vivid green upperparts, and yellow-green underparts in the male. It is endemic to the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil, inhabiting the interior of humid lowland and foothill forest, where it is rarely seen. It feeds primarily on berries and fruits in the forest canopy, moving slowly and deliberately.
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.
