Spotted
The Many-banded Aracari is aptly named for the multiple dark bands across its yellow belly, a unique feature among aracaris. This colorful toucanet has a black head and back, contrasting with its banded underparts. It inhabits humid tropical forests, foraging for fruits and insects.
Where to spot
Found in humid tropical lowland forests of the western Amazon Basin, including parts of Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, and Colombia.
How to spot
Look for its unique banded belly as it hops through the mid to upper canopy. Listen for its distinctive, often chattering or 'keek' calls. It often moves in small, active groups, making it easier to spot.
When to spot
Present year-round. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon hours. Increased vocalization during the breeding season.

The number and prominence of the dark bands on its belly can vary slightly between individuals, but the multi-banded appearance is consistent and distinguishing.
