About These Birds
Bay-vented Cotinga
The Bay-vented Cotinga is a near-threatened, little-known cotinga restricted to humid elfin forests on ridges in Ecuador and northern Peru. It is a plump bird with dark plumage and a distinctive rufous-chestnut vent. It feeds on fruit in the high-altitude forest canopy, and its rarity and restricted range make it vulnerable to habitat disturbance.
Andean Cock-of-the-rock
The Andean Cock-of-the-rock is a spectacular cotingid with a 36.7 cm wingspan, weighing 245 grams. Males are brilliant orange-red with a large semicircular crest covering the bill, while females are brownish. It inhabits Andean cloud forests and rocky outcrops, where males gather at leks to display.
