Compact, medium-sized bird of rainforest canopy; often seen at fruiting trees or perched atop bare snags. Male plumage is stunning in good light, but can appear blackish otherwise. Feeds on fruit and often commutes long distances between food sources. In western Amazonia, compare to Plum-throated Cotinga; note the male Spangled’s more extensive black markings, including the tail. Females are recognizable by their small, rounded heads and scalloped plumage; both sexes have dark (not yellow) eyes. Source: ebird.org
