White-browed Antbird

Myrmoborus leucophrys

Least Concern

The White-browed Antbird is an antbird of humid forests in Colombia, Peru, and Suriname. It forages in dense forest undergrowth, taking insects and other small invertebrates, and usually stays close to cover. Fun fact: Despite their name, most antbirds do not eat ants; they are named for following army-ant swarms to catch the insects the ants flush out.
