barred antshrike, male


Barred antshrike


A noisy bird (length 14 cm) striped black and white. You meet
it in gardens and on abandoned parcels, but also along roads and
in the savannas. The female is brown with some stripes on her
head.
This antshrike makes its presence known by its
song, ko ko ko ko.. ko krrr
,
increasing in tempo and tone. While singing they erect their
crest (black and white for the male, brown for the female). They
often sing a duet. Nests can be found in gardens. They use
grasses for them and hang them in bushes. They eat insects, like
the many different kinds of ants around each house.
