Black-cowled Saltator

Saltator nigriceps

Least Concern

The Black-cowled Saltator is a stout-billed tanager ally that feeds on seeds, fruit, buds, and insects in forest edge, scrub, or woodland in northern Andes. It is mapped as an approximate resident or core native range, with local endemics kept tighter than widespread continental species. Fun fact: tanagers are one of the largest songbird radiations in the Americas, with bills and diets that vary dramatically across habitats.
