About These Birds

Black-crowned Pittasoma

The Black-crowned Pittasoma is a plump, boldly patterned bird of humid lowland forests in Panama and northwestern Colombia, resembling a pitta but related to antbirds, with a black crown, rufous face, and boldly spotted underparts. It inhabits the forest floor and lower undergrowth of humid tropical forests. It feeds on insects and other invertebrates, often following army ant swarms.
