Bolivian Antpitta

Grallaria cochabambae

Least Concern

The Bolivian Antpitta is an antpitta of humid forests in Bolivia. A plump, almost tailless bird with long legs, it hops across the shaded forest floor and low understorey, pausing upright to search the leaf litter for insects, worms, and other small prey. Fun fact: Despite their name and shape, antpittas are not closely related to the true pittas of the Old World.
