It is another species of the cotinga-thewell-knowncampanero, or bell-bird

I saw here, for the first time, the sky-blue Chatterer (Ampelis cotinga).

The pompadour cotinga has a purple body and white wings, their four first feathers tipped with brown.

The pompadour cotinga is entirely purple, except his wings, which are white, their four first feathers tipped with brown.

The purple-throated cotinga has black wings and tail, and every other part a light and glossy blue, save the throat, which is purple.

Next to the humming-birds, the cotingas display the gayest plumage.

None of these three cotingas have a song.

Though, like most of its tribe, it is sometimes seen in flocks, it never feeds with other species of cotingas.

While the cotingas attract your attention by their superior plumage, the singular form of the toucan makes a lasting impression on your memory.

He is never seen to feed with the other cotingas, nor is it known in what part of Guiana he makes his nest.
