The Yellow-billed Chlorophonia is a small, striking finch known for its predominantly green plumage, yellow belly, and notably bright yellow bill. It inhabits humid forests in the northern Andes.
Where to spot
Restricted to the humid montane forests of the northern Andes, primarily found in western Colombia and northwestern Ecuador, usually at mid-elevations.
How to spot
Search the mid to upper canopy of humid montane forests. The bright yellow bill is the most distinctive feature. Look for a small, active green bird. Listen for its high-pitched, often squeaky, and somewhat varied calls.
When to spot
Resident throughout its limited range. Early mornings are typically the most productive time to observe these birds as they actively forage for small fruits.
