Least Concern

The Black-billed Barbet is an African barbet of Ethiopian and Horn of Africa highlands and dry woodland. It uses stout bills to eat fruit, figs, insects, and other small food, and often nests in cavities excavated in dead wood or soft branches. It is currently assessed as Least Concern, though healthy habitat and secure nesting trees remain important locally.
