Spotted
The Red-necked Aracari is a vibrant toucanet, characterized by a striking red band on its neck and a yellow belly with a red central band. Its bill is multi-colored. It inhabits humid tropical forests, often seen in small, active groups foraging for fruit and insects.
Where to spot
Found in humid tropical lowland forests and forest edges across the southern Amazon Basin, particularly in Brazil and northern Bolivia.
How to spot
Look for its distinctive red neck and belly bands as it hops through the mid to upper canopy. Listen for its distinctive, often chattering or 'keek' calls. It often travels in small, noisy flocks, making it easier to locate.
When to spot
Present year-round. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon hours. Increased vocalization during the breeding season.
