This is a White-eared puffbird that appeared outside the Karadya Park, near the road. It is recognized by its strong and thick reddish bill with a dark tip - and the large white cheek patches that gave the bird its name: 'white-eared'. This is a true omnivore that feeds on beetles, arthropods, insect larvae, millipedes, scorpions, crabs, lizards, poisonous frogs and small marsupials, which are usually taken from the ground, as well as wasps and other large insects that are caught in the air. It is found only in eastern South America. Karadya is the southernmost extremity of its range.
