About These Birds
Amazonian Umbrellabird
The Amazonian Umbrellabird is a large cotinga weighing 477 g with an impressive 51.9 cm wingspan, distinguished by its black umbrella-like crest and long wattled throat pouch used in booming display calls. Males gather at leks to attract females in humid Amazonian forests.
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.
