September 20, 2023 - Black-hooded Antshrike (Thamnophilus bridgesi) Found along the Pacific slope of Costa Rica and western Panama, these antbirds live in a variety of forested habitats, including mangroves. Foraging alone or in pairs and often joining mixed-species flocks, they feed on insects and other arthropods, picking prey from surfaces in vine tangles or on the ground. They sometimes follow army ants, capturing prey as it flees the swarm. Breeding from February to September in Costa Rica, they build cup-shaped nests from rootlets and other fibers, spiderwebs, and green moss, attached to forked branches by the rim. Both parents incubate the clutches of two eggs and feed the chicks.
