Birds That Start With X
- Xenops
Xenops are a small to medium sized bird that is found in the Americas. They have black and white markings on their heads and chests, and they are known for their loud, piercing calls.
Xenops typically eat insects, but they will also eat fruit and nuts. They build nests out of sticks, and they lay between two and four eggs.
Xenops are not considered to be endangered, but their populations have declined in recent years due to habitat loss and fragmentation.
