About These Birds
Black-billed Barbet
The Black-billed Barbet is a small, colorful barbet of sub-Saharan East Africa, with a boldly patterned red, black, and yellow head and a stout dark bill. It inhabits woodland edges, gardens, and savanna with fruiting trees from Ethiopia south to Tanzania. Like other barbets, it excavates nest cavities in tree trunks and feeds on fruits, berries, and insects.
Bearded Barbet
The Bearded Barbet is a large, colorful barbet of the savanna woodlands and forest edges of West and Central Africa. It has a striking combination of red breast and belly, black upperparts, white cheeks, and a yellow eye ring, along with the characteristic beard-like bristles at the bill base. It feeds primarily on figs and other fruits, and also takes insects.
