About These Birds

Black Bushbird

The Black Bushbird is a rarely seen, velvet-black antbird of dense bamboo thickets and forest undergrowth in the western Amazon Basin of Colombia, Peru, Brazil, and Bolivia. The male is entirely black while the female has rufous underparts. Its cryptic habits and dense habitat make it difficult to observe; it forages close to the ground, feeding on insects and other invertebrates.

Acre Antshrike

The Acre Antshrike is a small antbird weighing about 22g found in the southwestern Amazon basin. It inhabits dense tropical forest understory, foraging for insects in thick vegetation.
