Wikipedia

  1. cephalopterus ornatus

    The Amazonian umbrellabird (Cephalopterus ornatus) is a species of bird in the family Cotingidae native to the Amazon basin with a separate population on the eastern slopes of the Andes. The male bird is entirely black, with a black crest and inflatable wattle on the throat, and at 48 to 55 cm (19 to 22 in), may be the largest passerine bird in South America. The female is slightly smaller. Both have an undulating flight, described as woodpecker-like, and the male has a loud, booming call. The Amazonian umbrellabird feeds on fruit and berries, and may opportunistically take insects and spiders. It forages singly, in pairs or in small groups, in the forest canopy, hopping from branch to branch, but is a secretive species and is more often heard than seen.

    Cephalopterus ornatus, more commonly known as the Long-wattled Umbrellabird, is a species of bird in the family Cotingidae. It resides primarily in humid forests in western Colombia and western Ecuador. This unique bird is noted for its large size, up to 51 centimeters (20 in) long, and its black feathered "umbrella" crest on the frontal head. Male birds also possess an inflatable wattle on the neckline which can reach lengths of 35 centimeters, which usually remains deflated when the bird is not in display for a mating performance.
