About These Birds
Apolo Cotinga
The Apolo Cotinga is an endangered passerine from Bolivia's Apolo region, weighing about 46 grams with a wingspan near 19 cm. It inhabits humid montane forests in a very restricted area of the Bolivian Andes. This rare cotinga remains poorly known due to its remote habitat and small population size.
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.
