About These Birds
Black-billed Peppershrike
The Black-billed Peppershrike is a stocky, large-headed vireo relative of Andean foothills in Colombia and Ecuador, distinguished from similar peppershrikes by its entirely dark bill. It inhabits the canopy and edges of humid montane forests and adjacent tall secondary growth. It feeds on large insects and caterpillars, deliberating gleaning prey from foliage with its stout, hooked bill.
Black-eared Shrike-babbler
The Black-eared Shrike-babbler is a compact, colorful bird with rich chestnut wings, gray upperparts, a black facial mask, and yellowish-white underparts. It inhabits subtropical and tropical moist mountain forests from the eastern Himalayas through Southeast Asia to Sumatra. It forages deliberately through the forest midstory, searching bark and foliage for insects and small arthropods.
