Yellow-bellied Greenbul

Eurillas curvirostris

The Yellow-bellied Greenbul (Eurillas curvirostris) is a small, insectivorous bird found in the forests and woodlands of West Africa. It is characterized by its olive-green upperparts, bright yellow underparts, and a distinctive curved bill. This species is known for its melodious and varied song, often heard in the dense vegetation where it forages for insects and small fruits. The Yellow-bellied Greenbul plays a vital role in forest ecosystems as a seed disperser and insect predator. Despite facing habitat loss and degradation, it is still relatively common in its range.
