Lovely! Is it an antwren because it eats ants?#2: lala lili lolo (langedrako) on Feb 11, 2020 [SPOILER]
I'm guessing so, because ant bites contain formic acid.
It is part of a whole family of birds that specialize in following ant swarms in the tropical rain forest. There are antwrens, antshrikes, antpitas, antbirds and more. Although only a few eat the actual ants as they mostly aim for the bugs who are running away from the swarm!#3: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Feb 11, 2020
