Spotted
The Yellow-billed Nunbird is a large, predominantly dark puffbird recognized by its prominent, bright yellow bill. It inhabits the canopy and sub-canopy of humid lowland forests.
Where to spot
Humid lowland tropical rainforests, particularly near rivers and streams, in the western Amazon basin of southeastern Colombia, eastern Ecuador, eastern Peru, and western Brazil.
How to spot
Look for its striking yellow bill as it perches upright in the forest mid-story or canopy. Listen for its distinctive, often repeated, whistle-like calls.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, especially noticeable by their calls in the early morning.
The Yellow-billed Nunbird's bright bill stands out in the dim light of the forest understory, a useful feature for identification despite the bird's generally dark plumage.
