Gray-headed Antbird

Kempiella griseoceps

The Gray-headed Antbird (Kempiella griseoceps) is a small, insectivorous bird found in the Amazon rainforest of South America. It is known for its distinctive gray head and upperparts, with a contrasting black throat and chest. This species is often found foraging on the forest floor or in the understory, where it feeds on insects and small invertebrates. The Gray-headed Antbird is known for its complex vocalizations and is often heard before it is seen. It forms monogamous pairs and builds cup-shaped nests in low vegetation. This species is not currently considered to be globally threatened, but its population may be declining due to habitat loss and fragmentation.
