The Yellow Longbill (Eurillas ansorgei) is a small, insectivorous bird found in the dense undergrowth of tropical forests in Central Africa. It is characterized by its bright yellow underparts and olive-green upperparts, with a distinctive long, slender bill. This species is known for its acrobatic foraging behavior, often hanging upside down from branches to reach insects. The Yellow Longbill is typically found in lowland and montane forests, where it feeds on a variety of insects and small invertebrates. Despite its vibrant plumage, this species can be elusive due to its preference for dense vegetation. The conservation status of the Yellow Longbill is currently listed as Least Concern by the IUCN.
