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-cheeked Ant-tanager
The Black-cheeked Ant-tanager is a Near Threatened species restricted to the Osa Peninsula and adjacent areas of southwestern Costa Rica, with males displaying a red crest, black cheeks, and a rose-red throat. It inhabits the interior of humid lowland forests, where it associates with army ant swarms to capture insects flushed by the ants. Deforestation on the Osa Peninsula poses the main threat to this species.
