October 12, 2020 - Fiery-throated Fruiteater (Pipreola chlorolepidota)

These small fruiteaters are found in forests along the Andes mountains in southern Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru. Their diet is not known, but they have been observed foraging in fruit trees and probably feed almost entirely on fruit like other members of this genus. Females build small, shallow nests on tree branches from moss, liverworts, and roots. While they incubate the eggs alone, both parents care for the chicks. They are listed as Near Threatened by the IUCN due to a loss of habitat from mining, oil exploration, logging, and agriculture.

Orange-breasted fruiteater (Pipreola jucunda)

The orange-breasted fruiteater is a species of bird in the family Cotingidae native to Colombia and Ecuador. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is a plump green bird about 18 centimetres long. Males have a glossy black head and bib, an orange throat and yellow belly. Females lack the dark head and have green upper parts and green and yellow streaked underparts. The orange-breasted fruiteater is sometimes seen in small flocks with other species. It feeds largely on fruit which it either eats while perching on a branch or while hovering rather clumsily. Cup-shaped nests have been found about 5 metres above the ground but little is known of this bird's breeding habits.
