About These Birds
Bare-necked Umbrellabird
The Bare-necked Umbrellabird is an Endangered cotinga of the family Cotingidae found in humid montane forests of Costa Rica and Panama. Weighing about 385g with a wingspan of 46.6cm, the male sports a prominent crest and a bare red wattle on its neck. Deforestation and hunting have significantly reduced its population across its restricted range.
Bay-vented Cotinga
The Bay-vented Cotinga is a near-threatened, little-known cotinga restricted to humid elfin forests on ridges in Ecuador and northern Peru. It is a plump bird with dark plumage and a distinctive rufous-chestnut vent. It feeds on fruit in the high-altitude forest canopy, and its rarity and restricted range make it vulnerable to habitat disturbance.
