June 3, 2024 - Mayan Antthrush (Formicarius moniliger) Found from southern Mexico to Honduras, these antbirds live in lowland and foothill forests. They feed on invertebrates, including insects, spiders, and snails, usually foraging alone. Little is known about their breeding behavior though both males and females sing territorially and three of their nests were seen in May. Closely related species nest in cavities in trees and palms.

"Elusive inhabitant of humid tropical lowlands and foothills from Veracruz to Honduras. Walks jerkily like a small chicken (not like a thrush) on the shady forest floor, holding its tail cocked and tossing leaves with its bill. Can be very difficult to see. Listen for distinctive loud series of piping whistles that drops in pitch."

Photo of the Day – The Rufous-breasted Antthrush (Formicarius rufipectus) is similar to other members of its genus by being a short-tailed, chunky, forest floor dwelling bird that walks like a chicken. It is usually found singly or in pairs throughout the forest, but can also be seen attending army ant swarms.

October 7, 2022 - Black-headed Antthrush (Formicarius nigricapillus)

These antthrushes are found in forests in parts of Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and Ecuador. They eat arthropods, tiny reptiles, and frogs, foraging alone or sometimes in pairs on the forest floor. Breeding between December and May, depending on the area of their range, they build shallow cup-shaped nests from leaf stems and dry leaves in hollow palm stumps.
