Straight-billed Woodcreeper Breaks Down Large Insect

13 July 2016

This Straight-billed Woodcreeper has captured a substantial meal, but it is far too large for the bird to consume in one go. This problem is fixed by hitting the insect on a tree multiple times to break it into smaller, more manageable pieces that the bird can swallow.

Straight-billed Woodcreepers live in South America and Panama.
