About These Birds

Black-faced Grosbeak

The Black-faced Grosbeak is a medium-sized, stocky bird with olive-green upperparts, yellow underparts, a thick gray bill, and a distinctive black face and throat. It inhabits humid tropical forests and forest edges from southern Mexico through Central America to Panama. It forages in the canopy and midstory, feeding on seeds, berries, and insects, often in mixed-species flocks.

Black-backed Grosbeak

The Black-backed Grosbeak is a large, striking finch found along forest edges and scrubby montane slopes on the eastern Andes from Colombia to Bolivia and Argentina. Males have a black back and head with golden-yellow underparts and a massive bill. It feeds on seeds, berries, and insects, often foraging in the canopy.
