Feeding Habits
Yellow-billed Jacamar's diet consists mainly of insects like beetles, hemipterans, cicadas, dragonflies, flies, ants, bees, and wasps. Yellow-billed Jacamar catches prey by sallying from perches, often accompanying mixed-species flocks. It has a preference for winged termites and may eat butterflies and moths.
Habitat
The yellow-billed Jacamar typically resides in the interior regions of primary and mature secondary rainforests, including terra firme, várzea, and igapó types. It is often found in areas with small clearings or treefall gaps and is also associated with vine-tangled woodlands. While less frequent, it can inhabit gallery forests and sandy coastal woodlands. This bird generally occupies the lower to mid-level strata of the forest, approximately 1–10 meters above the ground.
