Thrush-like Antpitta

Myrmothera campanisona

Least Concern

The Thrush-like Antpitta is an antpitta of humid forests in Ecuador, Peru, and Suriname. 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: Several antpittas have been coaxed into the open at forest feeding stations, where they come for earthworms.
