the lettered aracari is a medium-sized member of the toucan family found in bolivia, brazil, colombia, ecuador and peru. they feed primarily on fruit, but like other toucans, are somewhat opportunistic and will also feed on eggs, young birds, and arthropods. while they are assumed to nest in cavities like other toucans, little else is known about their breeding behavior. they are named for the black ‘script’ markings of their upper mandibles, which may resemble lettering.
A quick piece I did of my favorite Toucan species and one of the worlds coolest looking birds, a Curl-Crested Aracari (Pteroglossus beauharnaisii).
Curl-Crested Aracari's are classified as least concern under the IUCN.
The second largest member of the Aracari family but small for a Toucan, the Curl-Crested Aracari is of the most striking bird species, with a range of colorful feathers and displaying modified head feathers belonging to no other bird species in the world.
Curl crested Aracari's forage in groups of up to 12 in tropical lowland forests of southern Peru, western Brazil, and northern Bolivia.
Not my best work with the piece being rather fast and a bit sketchy, but I do like how it turned out, even if beak doesn't look quite right for the pose.

Collared Aracari (2026) I have been drawing an Aracari thrice now. This is my latest edition (took approximately 5 hours). I have tried finding some motivation to draw, and doing the same species several times is a fun way to do it, just to see how different both the style and the skill is. The last one drawn was in 2020, which you can find further down on my profile. The first one was in 2018. This latest edition is now 8 years older than the first one. So fun!

Day 156#: Many-Banded Aracari
Today's animal of the day is the Many-Banded Aracari (Pteroglossus pluricinctus)!

This colorful member of the toucan family can be found in dense forests of Brazil, Colombia, northeastern Peru, and southeastern Venezuela. They are named after the two darker colored bands of feathers on their yellow bellies, with the top band being black and the bottom one being mostly black as well, but with a bit of red. In addition to these bands, they also have red feathers on their rumps and a patch of featherless blue skin surrounding their eyes. Their long bills, which tend to be slightly longer in males, are serrated to help them keep hold of their food as they fly through the forest. Their diet consists mostly of fruit, but when given the chance, they'll also eat insects, eggs, lizards, and even smaller species of birds!

They are one of the most common species of aracaris in their range, and are commonly seen hanging around various types of fruit-bearing trees. These birds usually forage either in pairs or small groups, and play an important role in their ecosystem as seed dispersers. Many birds (and other animals) help fruit-baring trees spread their seeds by eating their fruit and pooping the seeds out somewhere else. Though the many-banded aracari actually throws up the seeds from the fruit it eats instead of pooping them out like many other species of seed dispersers do.
We're getting some cool Toucans and Aracaris submitted and uploaded to the index in the next few weeks! Exciting stuff!
