Description
The bluish-fronted jacamar (Galbula cyanescens) is a species of bird in the family Galbulidae. It is found in the western Amazon Basin of Brazil, Peru and far northwestern Bolivia. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. 
Size
23 cm
Feeding Habits
Bluish-fronted Jacamar's diet likely mirrors that of its relative G. ruficauda, primarily consuming flying insects such as dragonflies. Bluish-fronted Jacamar hunts via sallying from mid-level perches, occasionally joining mixed-species flocks for foraging.
Habitat
The bluish-fronted Jacamar typically resides in areas bordering humid primary forests, including gallery forests and secondary growth, with a preference for vegetation near streams and lakes. This species thrives in mid-successional stages, characterized by a mixed canopy and the presence of Ficus and Cedrela trees, while its population density diminishes in both earlier successional stages and mature forests.
