White-chinned Jacamar

Galbula tombacea

Least Concern

The White-chinned Jacamar is a slim, long-billed jacamar of Amazonian riverine forests of northern South America. It usually watches from exposed forest-edge or riverbank perches, then darts out to catch flying insects such as butterflies, moths, bees, and dragonflies, often returning to the same perch. It is currently assessed as Least Concern, though healthy forest edges, river corridors, and nesting banks remain important locally.
