Meet the Toucan Barbet (Semnornis ramphastinus)! This thick-billed bird inhabits cloud forests throughout parts of Colombia and Ecuador. It uses its bill to crush berries and squeeze nectar out of flowers. Both males and females have vibrant plumage; the main difference in appearance is that males have a black tuft by their necks.
