Feeding Habits
Black-billed Scythebill's diet primarily consists of arthropods, indicative of insectivorous habits. It forages alone or in pairs, often joining mixed-species flocks. Black-billed Scythebill is adapted to probe deep into crevices using its long, curved bill, snatching prey from trunks, branches, and bamboo in various forest levels.
Habitat
The black-billed Scythebill typically inhabits semi-deciduous and humid forests, with a marked preference for mature evergreen, cloudforests, and older second growth areas, as well as forest edges. This bird has a particular association with dense Guadua bamboo thickets and adapts to a range of environmental conditions, from mountainous terrain to lower elevations. Black-billed Scythebill can be found in broader subtropical regions and is also known to occupy fragments along peninsulas, extending into drier habitats such as caatinga and cerrado regions.
